April double points promotion

[Steve4031]

Just wondering if miles gained during this double points promotion count towards select status. Thanks

I wouldn't think so, they usually don't. Only during the fall double point promo do certain lucky people get the opportunity to use the double points towards status.

That's what I thought. Oh well . . . it will be a awhile until I get select plus.

Status?

Yes, anyone who earns 5,000 points in one year from riding Amtrak gets Select status, earn 10,000 and you get Select Plus status. Both levels offer bonus points for traveling, a limited number of free upgrades to either First Class on Acela or business class on other trains, along with a few other perks.
