Whether it’s escaping from cabin fever or enjoying all the season has to offer, Amtrak has a way to have fun and save money with 20 percent discounts on several Midwestern trains from now through April 30, 2010. Amtrak introduced a new Web site designed to show travelers how convenient it is to travel by train to visit the country’s national parks. With the theme “Parks in Your Backyard,” Amtraktoparks.com allows users to see the nearest Amtrak route to featured national park sites, each of which can be reached using public transportation from an Amtrak station. Now through January 25, Amtrak passengers can book a winter getaway for up to 20 percent off of one-way fares on every Long Distance train route for travel between January 19 and March 31, 2010. Our family loves traveling by train. We often take the suburban Metra trains into Chicago when we visit museums or go sightseeing with out of town visitors. When it comes to traveling greater distances for extended vacations via Amtrak, it’s been more of a contentious issue. The cost and time factors often leave us little choice but to travel by car, for convenience, or by plane, for the sake of time. Now through December 19, 2009, Amtrak Guest Rewards (AGR) members will earn double points for every qualifying trip they take on any Amtrak route from coast to coast — and earn points twice as fast towards free travel and other rewards. Guest Rewards members may earn double points on up to two qualifying trips per day — one roundtrip or two one-way trips. Travel on every Amtrak route and in all classes of service is eligible. To take advantage of the double points offer, passengers must be members of AGR and must first register to participate at AmtrakGuestRewards.com using registration code 91409 or by calling 1–800-307‑5000, selecting option 2 and entering the registration code. |
