We have been traveling by Amtrak and shopping to earn points with my AGR card. I now have 59,000 points and would like advice on our next trip. We plan on traveling in March of 2016. Should I book now or?
We live in the Twin Cities and would like to make a round trip via Amtrak.
Options-Leave St. Paul on Empire Builder to Chicago & transfer to Zephyr to which station in California? Maybe overnight on land and then Coast Starlight to Seattle. Another overnight on land and then home. Or reverse the trip? Pro's & Con's? Best use of points? Other suggestions?
How much time in between train changes?
Thanks in advance for all your suggestions. I have read & learned a lot from this forum & all your advice has been very helpful.
