Amtrak’s annual National Winter Travel Flash Sale is offering up to 40 percent off fares for routes nationwide for both coach and business class seats.
The sale is available to book now through November 14 for travel between December 2 through March 15, 2025. The Winter Travel Flash Sale is also combinable with other offers.
The deals allow for most travel departing Mondays through Thursdays, as well as Saturdays. There are a few blackout dates, especially during the Christmas and New Year holidays. With the deal, travelers can go from New York City to Washington, D.C. for as low as $34 each way.
The discount is available for all train travel except the Auto Train, Borealis, Carolinian, Lincoln Service, Hiawatha, Illini/Saluki, Illinois Zephyr/Carl Sandburg, Keystone, Missouri River Runner, Pacific Surfliner, Piedmont and Winter Park Express.
“Discounts offered during the National Winter Travel Flash Sale provide guests the opportunity to take convenient, comfortable and more sustainable trips between the biggest cities in the country — New York City, Washington, DC, Philadelphia and Boston — aboard the Acela or experience some of the country’s most spectacular landscapes on other trains to Chicago, Los Angeles or Dallas,” said Amtrak Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer Eliot Hamlisch.
“Whether you’re joining us for the first time or as an Amtrak Guest Rewards member, our aim is to ‘Retrain Travel,’ providing a better way to reach winter destinations — away from traffic, tolls and tedious lines — where the journey is part of the getaway," Hamlisch continued.
