Hi all,
I'm planning a speculative cross country trip for this summer and first off am wondering if an AGR companion coupon can be used while also paying for partial roomette upgrades (meaning coach for the majority of the trip, but a roomette for one or two of the overnight sections). If not, I would probably travel by myself entirely in coach with some of my AGR points.
I've pieced together a possible itinerary for the date I might be able to make this happen in between my summer class and the start of the fall semester, working around roomette availability on the Empire Builder and some of the high roomette buckets on the Cardinal and Zephyr. I am of course open to suggestions on altering this, but I would like to stay on the Cardinal if possible for at least one direction
Sunday-Monday
Cardinal 51 NYP-HUN - Coach
Cardinal 51 HUN-CHI - Roomette (+~$150)
Monday-Tuesday
Empire Builder 7 CHI-WGL - Coach
Tuesday-Wednesday
Empire Builder 27(15) WGL-PDX - Roomette (+~$200)
Portland Wed-Mon (Glacier skiing at Mount Hood)

Coast Starlight 11 PDX-SAC - Coach
Tuesday-Wednesday
California Zephyr 6 SAC-DEN - Coach
Wednesday-Thursday
California Zephyr 6 DEN-CHI - Roomette (+$270)
Thursday-Friday
Cardinal 50 CHI-NYP - Coach
There's also a good possibility I won't be able to make this happen this summer, but I'm itching to travel!
