Hi. I'm a new poster and long time lurker. I have learned a lot form this forum. I just have a few questions. I have taken many trips on Amtrak, as well as on the AT, but now I want to book 11 months out to save a little and get the lowest bucket. I would like to have some knowledge before I speak to an agent so I know what is possible and whats not.
1- I want to book a trip for 5. I want to possibly add just one sleeper to my trip for me and my wife (and a bathroom for everyone). My kids (in their 20's) don't mind sleeping in coach. The online system does not allow this type of booking. Can a agent do this? (I want to pay for everyone), also I don't think I can spit the trip as I am only using one vehicle and I understand all PNR need a vehicle on the AT?
2- If later I want to add another person (like a boy or girl friend) later on to the trip is this a problem on the AT? From what I could find here any future purchases are at the original bucket. Is this true on the AT also?
3- Can passengers be canceled without cancelling the entire reservation and still get a refund?
Thanks again fro a knowledgeable forum and I look forward to what folks have to say!
