Amtrak Rolls Out $55 Rides From NYC To Washington D.C.

It’ll soon be leaf peeping season, and what better way to admire fall’s colorful foliage than with a train ride–especially when you can get your hands on a discounted ticket?! If we’ve piqued your interest you’ll be happy to know Amtrak is hosting their Fall Travel Flash Sale, offering riders at least 30% off trips to major cities across the country.

Amtrak often runs similar deals, however they usually only last about a week. So we’re thrilled to have another chance at booking a trip at an incredible rate. Plus we’re so ready to leave this suffocating summer heat behind us and jump head first into autumn!

The Fall Travel Flash Sale is the perfect way to give yourself the chance to explore a major U.S. city without needing a car. It’s connecting cities like New York, Boston, New Haven, Washington D.C., Philadelphia, and Chicago.

Passengers must book on the Amtrak Coach or Acela Business Class, North America’s only high-speed train! And though it’s not as fast as the proposed Northeast Maglev, which would travel at speeds of 311 mph, the Acela trains travel at speeds as fast as 150 mph.

Amtrak Coach and Acela Business Class offers spacious, reclining seats with plenty of legroom and no dreaded middle seats.

Fares for the Fall Travel Flash Sale out of NYC are as low as the following (Amtrak Coach/Business Class):

  • New York to Washington D.C. – $55 / $109
  • New York to Savannah, GA – $93 (Amtrak Coach)
