Kalitta on 747-400s.

None, at least nonstop.

Link here. Line to be between San Francisco and LA.

Wi-fi covers the whole train, not just the business class and cafe cars.

Like Jim said above, you'll need to call Amtrak (1-800-872-7245) to make that accommodation since it is system prohibited. You may also consider booking two roomettes (you probably could get two next to each other this far out), and it might even end up saving you a little cash in the process.

Yes, I have. I really enjoyed the flight for the exact reasons that you gave as negatives, as most aviation enthusiasts would. How often can one fly on a piston-powered airliner these days? That's pretty cool to me. Airline manufacturers aren't really to blame for the interior setup of a given...

Wow. Have you ever even flown on one of these birds? Those sure are some powerful assumptions to make if not. The age of an aircraft doesn't really mean too much when it is well maintained. Delta's DC-9s are decades old, for example.

I'd give it a couple more days. It's only been 2 days since you cancelled. My credit card usually posts a refund in about 3 days.

The recession ended almost 2 years ago. Snap out of it already. Apparently Amtrak is doing something right with their ridership numbers seeing such an increase. They certainly haven't reached the point of decreasing returns. That being said, ridership doesn't really mean anything lot to the...

True statement. Upwards of 90% when I ran the numbers.

That is not anywhere close to a complete list. The primary airports in the US and its territories number 381, and there are a 121 non-primary commercial service airports. That list of current airports with the AIT machines and those slated to receive them is a mere 121. No majority by any means...
