Book now for the best schedule availability
WASHINGTON – Amtrak is encouraging customers to book now for what is expected to be a busy Thanksgiving travel season. Instead of sitting in traffic or a middle seat, customers can ride in comfort and celebrate this holiday with ease.
To accommodate more in-person events and same-day travel, Amtrak is adding more service on Thanksgiving morning and will increase the number of trains operating from Nov.18 – 28. Customers can also take advantage of additional service in the Northeast, Virginia, and between Portland, Ore., and Seattle – plus newly restored service for those traveling to and from Vancouver and Toronto.
Shopping and buying tickets is fast and easy on Amtrak.com [1], our mobile app, [2] our new ticketing kiosks, staffed stations or by calling 800-USA-RAIL. Passengers can also connect directly with customer service representatives via social media:
