Can Amtrak Multi-Ride tickets be used to ride in Business Class on a c

[reppin_the_847]

Had a question for everyone here. Does anyone know whether or not Amtrak allows a passenger to upgrade to business class if they have a Multi-Ride ticket? This is for corridor services such as the Wolverine. I may check with Amtrak customer service on this later today. Please advise, thanks!

I dont see why not. I would attempt this with a phone rep or a station agent first. The conductor as a last resort.

Sure you can. I do it every week on the Surfliner. Since BC is priced as coach + upgrade, you just pay the upgrade. I upgrade every week at the station. So the conductor will scan both the business class upgrade portion and the 10 ride portion. The BC upgrade ticket will say on it "ONLY VALID WITH 10 RIDE TICKET."
