I have a trip planned out to go from NYP to NOL in January. Originally I was going to take the Crescent down and the CONO/Cardinal back up, but due to the weekday (insert reason for no service from ATL-NOL that has yet to be disclosed by Amtrak in January), I can't take the Crescent down anymore. I've been exploring options, and I thought about taking the Cardinal/CONO down and the Crescent back up instead as I can return on the Sunday Crescent. However, when I tried to see if I could book this, I found that I cannot.
It seems that taking the CONO/Cardinal from NOL-CHI-NYP is an option, but Amtrak has decided that the reverse trip (NYP-CHI-NOL) isn't acceptable. It doesn't come up as an option, only the LSL/CONO does. Does anyone know why this is? Would I be able to get around it by calling Amtrak directly? I do want to take the Cardinal one way no matter what. Right now my itinerary is LSL/CONO down and CONO/Cardinal back. I would like to avoid the LSL and taking the CONO twice if I can, but it's not a make or break deal either.
