Hello!
I recently completed my first-ever train trip: I traveled with my family on the Coast Starlight from Los Angeles to Portland. Stayed with family in Portland a few days, then back home on the train. We had two bedrooms on the train for the four of us, and I found it very nice.
We took the train because I am terrified to fly. I really, really enjoyed the train trip, however, and now I'm excited by the possibility of traveling all over the country by train. And many of the Amtrak vacation packages look fantastic.
Anyway, the vacations are not cheap. I do get the AAA discount, and my hubby gets a senior discount, but still. For those of you who travel on the train frequently, are there ever any sales or discounts, or ways to get a good deal on the Amtrak vacations?
Thanks!
