"The Sizzling Summer Sale allows our customers to travel across the country and experience the summer in a variety of ways, all while spending less on train tickets," Amtrak Executive Vice President Roger Harris. "Whether it's to see friends and family, experience a summer musical festival or baseball game, explore a new city or old favorite, have an outdoor biking or hiking adventure or relax at a beach, Amtrak can help our customers with a safe and relaxing way to travel."
To ensure a safe experience for passengers, Amtrak continues to implement health protocols, including mandatory facial coverings, onboard filtration systems, real-time seat availability, change fee waivers and more.
The Sizzling Summer Sale is not combinable with any other discount offer and upgrades are not permitted. Once purchased, sales are not refundable, but exchanges are permitted before scheduled departure.
