Amtrak Guest Rewards Members Can Earn Free Travel, Twice As Fast

Double Points on All Routes through December 19, 2009

WASHINGTON, DC - Now through December 19, 2009, Amtrak Guest Rewards (AGR) members will earn double points for every qualifying trip they take on any Amtrak route from coast to coast — and earn points twice as fast towards free travel and other rewards.

Guest Rewards members may earn double points on up to two qualifying trips per day — one roundtrip or two one-way trips. Travel on every Amtrak route and in all classes of service is eligible. To take advantage of the double points offer, passengers must be members of AGR and must first register to participate at AmtrakGuestRewards.com using registration code 91409 or by calling 1-800-307-5000, selecting option 2 and entering the registration code.

“The fall season brings back a resurgence of both business travel and leisure travel for long weekends and holidays,” said Michael Blakey, senior director, Loyalty Marketing. “We are pleased to reward our loyal customers with double points and hope to encourage new customers to become Amtrak Guest Rewards members.”

To receive the double points for travel, members should include their AGR membership number when making reservations to ensure they receive credit for all qualifying travel. Reservations may be made online at Amtrak.com or by calling 1-800-USA-RAIL.
