I tried searching, but the most recent thread about Amtrak seems to be 5+ years old.
Living in MD, it would be nice to have direct options for going up to NYC without a car.
I received an offer to get the Amtrak Guest Rewards CC (which looks like is issued by First National Bank of Omaha).
$1000 spending in 90 days gets you (only listing a few): 20,000 bonus points, one-class upgrade, station lounge pass, and what would be most valuable to me: a round-trip companion coupon.
Does anyone else have this card? Do you only get one round-trip coupon per year or can it be used multiple times? What is a station lounge? I haven't seen one in NY or in MD. And what is the points value...i.e. is this a worthwhile card?
Thanks!
