AutoTrain Booking One Way

[Hans627]

I've been trying to check availability of the AutoTrain to FL, one way only. But for several days it does not allow that option for some reason. Is it just me or have others noticed this?

Thanks!

can you give us a date range that we can try out?

I was looking at 12/9 from LOR to SFA.

I just tried one way from LOR to SFA on 12/9 and had no issue.

I just picked a date out of the blue and it works, but you need to make sure that the station names are populated from the drop down you can't just put in lorton or sanford

12/9 worked for me i looked at 1 passenger, showed 89 caoach 464 roomette I didn't look at vehicles

Just tried 12/9 LOR -SFA one way. No problem. From $89 coach, $464 sleeper. Standard vehicle $258.

I think this may have been the issue. I just tried it and it now works using the drop down station names.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I didn't think of right away, but if you use the Autotrain Tab, rather than the general booking,, LOR and SFA pre populate

Yeah, that happens to me sometimes when I use station codes - it doesn't always autofill from the drop-down box.

Another tip is to check price for 1 person versus your group. I did that and got the last seat at the lower price bucket. Had to call Amtrak to add the 2nd person as you cannot book a trip yourself without a automobile.
