Exiled in Express
Lead Service Attendant
I recently discovered that MSP had Thruway service and it actually went places I want/need to go at conveinient times. The catch is that I am in MSP already so do not need Amtrak rail travel to meetup with the Thruway bus, that must be booked with rail travel. I did discover that the rail travel does not need to be on the same date or even same city/route as the Thruway so I can pair up unrelated trips to meet this requirement and get ticketed. The problem becomes that I will have unrelated travel on the same reservation, meaning tickets print for both at the same time, and not only am I not dead certain of the future travel I would rather not hold the physical tickets.
Does Amtrak take a dim view on exchanging tickets where part of the reservation has been travelled and is this any different if it is a Thruway segment? The AGR points are the main draw but I also like the cancellation policy, lower price, and AAA discount available when Amtrak is the booking agent rather than the bus company directly.
