Up to 25% Off Train Travel with Amtrak’s Fall Flash Sale

If you dread the idea of pricey airfare eating up your holiday budget, there’s still time to get your seasonal travel plans back on track.  Skip the airport this autumn and snag deals up to 25% off with Amtrak’s Northeast Fall Flash Sale

Amtrak Northeast Fall Flash Sale 2024

From now through October 5th, travelers willing to depart on a Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday can find ultra-low Coach and Acela Business class tickets on several popular Northeastern Amtrak routes. Sample fares from Boston to Providence are as low as $16 in Coach ($62 in Business), from Washington to Philadelphia as low as $28 in Coach ($77 in business), and from Washington D.C. to New York City as low as $42 in Coach ($107 in Business). This sale is valid for travel between October 7th and December 18th.

Although the sale fares fall on weekdays only, creative booking can save you big. Traveling during off-peak times on non-sale days can still score you a premium deal. For example, a preliminary search for upcoming travel showed you could:

  • Book a leaf-peeping long weekend in Washington D.C. departing from New York City (October 15th through October 28th) for just $135 roundtrip by traveling on the 5:30am Friday train—only $74 in Coach—and returning at a much more reasonable 1:25pm on Monday for just $60.
  • Catch the train bright and early at 5:00 am from Washington DC to Philadelphia for just $10 the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and return the following Sunday evening for $50—a $60 roundtrip.
  • Book roundtrip holiday travel from New York City to Boston for just $66, departing NYC on December 18th for $30 and returning at 10am on the 26th for $36.
