sharing points

[Amtrak George]

I have been a guest rewards member for a while, and my wife just joined. If she accumulates points and wants to give them to me, how much does that cost and how does it work? Is there any restriction on her buying points and then transferring them to me, if I have already bought points this year? Thanks, George

Yes, she can share points with you. It's a penny per point in 1,000 point increments. Points can be purchased and then transferred as well.

You can gift or receive up to 100,000 points a year.

Or, if each of you have enough points for one half a round trip, use your name and points for the ticket for the trip out and a SEPERATE ticket in her name with her points for the return. No transfer fee that way.

You may also book an AGR ticket for another person using your points. There is no charge for this reservation.

Call AGR and ask to book a ticket in the name of the traveling person and have the points deducted from your account.

I have done this several times.
