Hi guys!
Prospective first-time Amtrak rider here. I purchased the USA Rail Pass when it was on sale back in June. I planned to book multiple trips using different routes. For instance, I plan to visit my friend in New York. To get there, I'd go Empire Builder from MPLS to Chicago, transfer to Lake Shore Limited from CHI to NYC. Then, I would take a leg down to D.C using a different Amtrak route.
However, I've just been looking at the terms and conditions. It says:
City Pairs: Travel is restricted to two roundtrips (four one-way trips) between the same two stations — as well as all intermediate destinations on the route. To book multiple trips between the same two stations, consider a multi-ride pass.
Can someone clarify this for me? It seems like I can only travel to destinations along one route....
I appreciate the insight!
