20% Off Holiday Travel Tickets

HERE FOR YOUR HOLIDAY TRAVELS

Although this holiday season might be a little different, we know you still have places to go. While we're taking extra precautions on our end to make travel as safe and easy as possible this year, here are some things you can do to have a safe, relaxing and hassle-free trip:

1. Train capacity will be limited for safety, so book your tickets early. If you book now, you get 20% off train tickets with our Saver Fare discount.

1. Peak travel times are the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and the Sunday after. Bypass these busy travel days by traveling a few days before Thanksgiving and leaving on Friday or Saturday-or after Sunday.

1. Work, stream movies and stay connected while you travel with our new Wi-Fi. It's free and available in every train car.

And last but not least, our café car will be closed, so don't forget to pack snacks. Everyone at Amtrak San Joaquins is looking forward to helping you reconnect with friends and family safely this holiday season. See you soon!
