A friend of mine is traveling from LAX to SJC in a few weeks. The PPC will not be back on the CS yet, but she's considering traveling in a roomette for privacy and meals, as it's a ten-hour trip. The roomette cost is around $160, while coach is around $55.
As the PPC is not on the train, she's wondering if it would still be worth it to have a roomette. I told her that she'd still have access to the lounge if she sat in coach but might not get much privacy. She's traveling on a Tuesday during spring break (second week of March), so I said the train could be pretty empty, or it could be busy. Not knowing this train, I couldn't really advise her.
So, given that the PPC is not on the train, would it still be worth paying for a roomette? I figure, with the PPC gone, the SSL will be more crowded than usual, yes?
