If you were thinking of purchasing the USA Rail Pass, Tuesday 1/20/26 is the final day to do so. I purchased my first pass on Monday, and I hope I can make it work out for my husband and I. I don’t have to think about it for a few months, since it is good until May 18th. Don’t forget that you need to use the pass within 30 days of first use, so for me, no later than April 18th, to begin my travels.
One thing I learned from the booking process is that if you have a voucher from Amtrak, it does not turn up on your Guest Reward account. You have to add it in, when you reach the payment screen. It is not easy to see, and easily missed. So if you have any that are still active, definitely hit the voucher link, and add the number given on the voucher. I saved $50 on my pass, even better! Have a great bunch of trips, if you buy it.
