Amtrak’s Winter Flash Sale: Score Ultra-Low Fares for a Cozy Getaway

National rail carrier Amtrak is spreading winter cheer with a limited-time flash sale on routes across the U.S. Travelers can secure budget-friendly fares for journeys between various destinations from December 4 through March 15, 2024. Amtrak Executive Vice President Eliot Hamlisch encourages passengers to take advantage of spacious seating, ample legroom, and a hassle-free experience. To access these special Winter Sale prices, bookings must be made by November 15. While available for Coach and Acela Business Class fares, seats are limited, and certain restrictions apply. Note that sale fares are non-changeable with a 50 percent cancellation fee, but travelers seeking flexibility can opt for the new Flex fares under Amtrak’s revamped pricing structure, offering ease and affordability.

Traveling by train not only avoids holiday rush hassles but also contributes to environmental sustainability with significantly lower emissions than flying or driving. Explore sample fares on Amtrak’s website or use the fare finder tool for more options.
