A few months ago I had a different special promotion with getting points due posted. After 4 patiently spaced out calls, I finally got a supervisor that understood what I was explaining about my problem was and got the points processed. Perhaps it's time to call for a supervisor again?

I would have said "Yeah, one breakfast and one lunch... and they'll even throw in a third meal at no extra charge - dinner!" ;) :D

Hey! When that happens I'll join you and I'll even wear a grass skirt! :blink:

You're saying basicly the same thing I stated, just in a little different way; that the crowding problem improved post-expansion. I also agree with you about the waiting to check-in. If there is no line or just a few, as it was the last time I used the lounge, I do the check-in while my wife...

Guest, let's presume that it turns that out you have to pay for the 3rd meal, have it be your child's meal and order from the child's menu to minimuize the cost. Also, if you're an AGR member (join if your not) and have an AGR Chase CC, use it to pay and you'll get 1 point for each dollar spent...

Jim, I first started using the Chicago Metro Lounge back in 1992 and in the earlier years I did find the lounge to be over crowded. However, both this year and last year where I traveled west bound to the SWC and east bound to the LSL I found the lounge expanded and saw no evidence of any over...

Thanks to all for the replies! I sort of thought as you did that saving the points for the longer trips would be best. So after reading all your replies I called the special number for the Autotrain and made my reservation for next years trip down to Florida. I could only make the resv. for...

Should we spend points now or save them for the future? That is the question! We are planning to travel to Florida in 2010 and back using the AutoTrain (1 zone x 2) and we're wondering if it would be more efficient use points for that Florida trip or to pay cash and save the points for future...

What, with signs indicating "BEWARE OF THE TRAVELER" BEING PLACE ALONG THE SHORT BUS ROUTE THROUGH THE VILLAGE, WHAT WOULD YOU EXPECT?

Actually the CDTA runs terminate at Waterford and return to Troy about every 15 minutes!

I don't know... I think the traveler might live at a train station! :lol:

How about a little over 3 years! I believe this has been discussed here on AU some time ago, but you can read about it at the following: http://www.texfiles.com/eramay02/trainride.htm.

No there is no metro available in the area, but he can stay at a Holiday Inn Express! ;)

146 is on both sides of the Northway. West it goes to Schenectady and East it goes to Mechanicville, not Waterford. And as for your avoiding Waterford, well that's probably because of the signs that have been posted for years on the outskirts of the village stating "NO TRAVELERS" and not...

Of course they wouldn't restrict you. The loss of income that would have cost Amtrak would be devistating! :rolleyes: BTW, when you live in my area, if you happened to go south from Mechanicville on Rt. 32 through Waterford, you would have gone right by my house.,,, and you probably didn't...

I believe your question has already been answered, but I just wanted to note for those who may have been wondering that I've found that the Summer Bonus Points have been being posted about 10 days after the rail points posted.

Very nice both in the video and the selection of music used. Personally, I especially like that there were scenes that I can relate to as having seen them several time while not even on the LSL. Specfically the stretch shown between Utica and Schenectady. There was the lock/damn along the...

Check with AGR and see if you can get any "Close to Flying Air Points!" :unsure:

And now The Traveler is going to be spending the rest of his month in PDX singing " :P

WOW, comparing an airline flight to traveling Amtrak! I myself never experienced or even heard of a train where the wheels arose up into the air upon leaving the station! You're not only the master of loopholes, but you must also be the master of finding really really unusual Amtrak trips too...
