So I know that one can redeem 10,000 AGR points for 5 one class upgrade coupons at the guest rewards website. anyway to get just one? I don't really want to blow 10K points when I only want one upgrade coupon. I looked at ebay, etc. and just wanted to throw it out there if anyone knew of a way to buy/barter for just one.
Be careful, the buying or bartering of coupons is against Amtrak's policy.
Wow, I had no idea! I have plans to take Acela to Philly in May and was thinking about that first class upgrade. I might just suck it up and buy the points, but I'll check out coupon connections, too on Flyertalk. it seems a shame that amtrak doesn't sell them in smaller amounts (less than 5) since they don't allow bartering, but hey, the rules are the rules and I don't want to do something I shouldn't be or that is ethically questionable.
