Here's a question I've been having (while dithering about making a reservation for a trip next winter). I received an email from Amtrak that said:
So, it says the reservation must be MADE by May 31. But not that any cancellations or changes must also be made by that date. So the implication is that we can make a reservation before May 31, for up to 11 months out, and then change or cancel it without penalty, right up till the day we begin travel. Do you think I have this correct? Has anyone asked that specific question, and received an answer?
Getting through the next six weeks is more important right now than making plans for next winter, but by the end of May, I might be willing to think about it. We'll see!
We are waiving change fees on all existing or new reservations made before May 31, 2020. This includes reservations booked with points.
