My family (me, wife, 6 kids) are taking the Amtrak from Cincinnati to Chicago (Cardinal) and then Seattle (Empire Builder)
From Cincinnati to Chicago we have 2 roomettes and 4 coach seats. From Chicago to Seattle we have 2 roomettes and a family bedroom
Most of my kids are older and are ticketed as adults.
For some reason now, I've become super worried that Amtrak is going to somehow have a problem with 2 of my older kids sharing a roomette, with my wife and another kid in the roomette next door (me and 3 kids in coach).
Anyone know if this will be a problem?
I don't know if this falls under the "unaccompanied minor policy" since we are all actually together on the train. It's my understanding that 16 and 17 year olds are allowed to go unaccompanied - do they check ID on that? Even 13-15 year olds can go "unaccompanied" but the policy doesn't read quite right since it is more geared towards a situation where the parents are not onboard the train.
We have traveled together by train once before and I can't remember if we had to show tickets / ID in the station or just to the conductor when boarding?
