I live in London, UK and we will be touring the States by Amtrak using the USA Rail Pass from April 16 to May 2. With one exception, we have made all sleeper reservations.
We've decided we want to experience coach class travel on the Lake Shore Limited and still need to book seats for this leg of our trip. Can we call Amtrak and quote our US Rail pass number and get a seat reservation right away? If we call our the UK agent, but they will charge us a travel agent fee. I'd rather cut out the middle man and call Amtrak directly. Any advice welcome!
If anyone's interested our trip is: New York City - New Orleans - Los Angeles - Chicago - New York City. Will do a report when we get back.
