I was curious... what's the best way (route) to get the most "bang for your buck" when it comes to AGR points?? I have racked up about 117,000 AGR points in the past 3 years... never cashed them in yet... but am thinking about it soon.
I mean let's use 20,000 points as an example.
20,000 points will get you a roomette from CHI-WAS on the Capitol Limited... but you're on the train for less than 20 hours and only get 1 night aboard.
The same 20,000 points can also get you 3 nights and parts of 4 days on the train if you go CHI-LAX on 421... or if you go CHI-LAX on the Builder (to PDX) then on the Starlight.
Seems the later 2 examples are the best way to use 20,000 points.
Anyone have any other routes they are done that are even better than those I mentioned?
(Again, I'm trying to get the longest train trip possible for 20K points)
