Hello,
This is my first time traveling with amtrak and would apprciate any advice you have to offer.
I am going to visit my sister at cal poly slo from the 27th of decemeber to the 2nd of january
She will be driving me to the college and I will then in turn take the Amtrak back to my hometown Sacramento.
I haven't booked my ticket but I know I want to take the Coast Starlight from 3:43 pm to 11:59 pm
I think this would be the easiest because there are no connecting stops
So here is a list of questions I have
1. Will the train be more crowded then usually because its the day after New Years?
2. Should I get a superliner room?
3. If so is there one room better then the other?
4. Should I be upstairs or downstairs?
5. Is there any place to meet other teens?
6. If I do get a sleeper will dinner be the only meal I am provided?
7. How worried should I be about theft?
8. Do I keep my luggage in the room or put it somewhere else?
9. To make my reservation is it better to call or book online?
10. Tips on how to get the best rate?
Any other advice or tips would be greatly appreciated too!
Thanks!
