Amtrak trains are among the world’s great travel experiences and a Rail Pass makes them amazingly economical. Available to citizens of any country, including the USA and Canada, passes are valid for 15, 30 or 45 days of coach class travel and allow you to visit 46 US states and more than 500 destinations. Business Class and accommodation upgrades are available at an additional charge.

Passes can be booked on-line. Segments and upgraded accommodations can be requested at time of booking or added later while traveling. One segment equals each boarding and disembarkation of a train or City to City pair. For example, Washington to Chicago with a connection in Pittsburgh would be considered 2 segments. The use of thruway bus services will count as a segment. Sleeping accommodations require an additional charge. Prices are valid all year with no peak pricing supplements.
