Will Award a Share of Two Million Points to All Eligible Members

WASHINGTON - The Amtrak Guest Rewards program is expecting to enroll its two millionth member on August 20th and to celebrate this milestone all eligible members who travel on that day can earn a share of two million points towards free travel and other rewards.

All Amtrak Guest Rewards members who travel on any Amtrak train on August 20th are eligible to earn a share of the two million points. Travel on every Amtrak route is eligible.

To participate in the promotion, members must register at AmtrakGuestRewards.com and enter the registration code 81009 or call 1-800-307-5000, select option 2 and enter registration code 81009. Once registered for the promotion, a member simply needs to travel on any Amtrak train on August 20th. Amtrak will divide the two million points amongst all eligible members who travel on that day.

Amtrak Guest Rewards members must include their membership number when making reservations in order to be eligible. Reservations may be made online at Amtrak.com or by calling 1-800-USA-RAIL.

Guest Rewards redemption travel is not eligible for this promotion. The number of points each participating member receives will be determined by the number of members who register for the promotion and who travel on August 20th. Members participating in the two millionth member promotion will receive their share of the two million points as well as their regular Amtrak travel points and any additional bonus points they are qualified to receive.

Amtrak introduced Amtrak Guest Rewards in November 2000 to recognize its most loyal passengers. One of the most flexible frequent traveler programs in the travel industry, it is based on actual dollars spent, rather than miles traveled, making it easier and faster to accrue points and earn rewards.
