In January, I've booked the Southwest Chief from Chicago to Los Angeles and then the day after arriving in LA, I'm taking the CS to Seattle.
Rather than spending a day in LA, I've seperately booked a return trip on the Pacific Surfliner to San Diego (I like SD, whilst LA leaves me cold). The ticket is cancellable until the Surfliner departs, so if the SC is to late for the connection, I'll be able to cancel the trip and I'll spend the day in LA (not ideal, but hey ho). However, for the return leg, if Surfliner 765 is an hour or more late, I'll be stuffed.
Would Amtrak be receptive to me adding the LA-SD trip to my booking and if so, would it then become a guaranteed connection ?
