Room number on app?

[Chatter163]

My Thanksgiving trip still doesn't give the roomette numbers on the app, only "roomette." I have it on the hard-copy tickets, which I always print as a back-up.

I don't have a printer but I just keep the pdf saved on my phone. I like the feel of physical ticket stock though so I always print at the quik trak when there is one.

Have they been slowly taking away quik traks from stations?

I haven't seen any go missing. Unless you count SFC where the whole facility went away. It's more a matter of smaller stops never having received any in the first place.

We lost the one @ the Austin Station last year, and I haven't been on an Amtrak Train since June ( Day Trip to Temple on the Eaglete)so I'm not sure of what Stations on this Route have lost their Quik Traks during the Pandemic.

my room number for my Friday trip showed up on app. Not appearing for December trip in 6.

Thx, found it -- one level deeper than I'd gone before. That's a lot of clicks, though. I wouldn't want to have to go thru all that while boarding. And you're right, it does say No Checked Baggage on that window.

I booked Quincy - Chicago - Washington - Tampa - St Pete/Clearwater. VIEW/SHARE DETAILS does show the room number for the two overnight trains. However all 4 segments show "No Checked Baggage". I know for a fact that all but the QCY-CHI segment have checked baggage.

Tell me that isn't a bug!

I’m guessing it looks at the first & last station to determine whether to show that. Since your first station does not have checked bags ..

True, you can't check bags QCY - STP. But then why display incorrect baggage/no baggage information for each segment?

Ok, let's call it a design flaw rather than a bug.

I just booked a trip on the Crescent and the car and room number are visible when viewing my trip in the app! This will make boarding so much easier since I will not have to have the paper copy to remember my car number.

Ditto.

I concur - I might have inadvertently deleted the email that I should have received when amending a previous booking of a Roomette, and I couldn't remember the car/roomette #'s, and the car/roomette number wasn't visible on the website version of the reservation, but it is visible on the app., a very handy feature.

Same for me. I booked our April trip on the Crescent from Birmingham to New Orleans and back last November. Both car and room number were on the app but I entered the information on a note in my phone as a back up. All was for naught as life got in the way and we had to cancel the trip.

They had fixed the app just before my November 2021 trip, where room numbers hadn't been showing, then they did.

I wouldn't expect it to be a problem anymore, at least until the coding geniuses at Amtrak IT f it up again.
