Are you in the mood for some travel with your significant other? Amtrak is making it easier than ever with its Valentine's Day Buy One Get One Free Sale.

Starting on Valentine's Day and running through February 18, travelers can purchase one ticket and get the second one free for nationwide journeys between March 25 and July 29, with no blackout dates.

Instead of giving the person you love chocolates, flowers or valentines this year, Amtrak is using the deal to encourage customers to give the gift of travel with the Buy One Get One Free Sale.
