Amtrak’s Valentine’s Day BOGO Sale Is the Perfect Gift (But It Ends Soon)

Flowers and chocolate are *so* last year.

By Erica Loop February 13, 2021

Forget about roses and heart-shaped boxes of chocolate-covered cherries. This Valentine’s Day you can gift your sweetie a train trip!

Amtrak’s Valentine’s Day Buy One Get One Free Sale is a BOGO you can’t miss. The sale starts Feb. 11 and goes through Feb. 16. Customers who use the code C214 at checkout (or visit the Amtrak website here) will get a free companion ticket when they purchase one regular fare.

The Valentine’s Day BOGO special includes tickets used for nationwide travel between February 22 and August 27. This means you don’t have to use this holiday deal to actually celebrate Valentine’s Day. You can pick a later date for a spring break or summer-time getaway.

BOGO deals are available for adult-priced tickets on select train lines—the Auto Train, California Zephyr, Empire Builder, Southwest Chief, Acela, and Northeast Regional. Check with Amtrak for additional route availability. Fairs vary by route. Both adults must travel together. You may upgrade to Acela First Class and non-Acela Business Class for an extra charge, upon payment in full.

Seating is limited—so book your BOGO ASAP. Visit Amtrak’s website for a full list of restrictions, terms, and conditions.
