Amtrak Restores Discounts for Veterans

Amtrak has restored fare discounts for military veterans, a 10 percent off discount that is available systemwide.

The discontinuance of the veteran’s fare discount in March 2018 had been widely criticized.

In a news release, Amtrak said the discount will apply to active duty military personnel as well as veterans of the Army, Marines, Navy, Air Force and Coast Guard.

The discount applies to standard fares in coach and Acela Business Class but is not valid on weekday Acela service.

It cannot be used with Saver fares, non-Acela business class, first class, or sleeping-car accommodations.

Other terms and restrictions may apply and are spelled out on the Amtrak website.
