Over the past two years, I have really got into rewards travel with credit cards. Between Chase and Amex, I've collected probably 300,000 points and taken two trips so far.
I was looking to do some traveling recently and it hit me, I can't do anything with AGR.
I can book travel on a variety of airlines using Amex or Chase's travel portals, and I can pay with points or pay with cash.
Or I can transfer Amex or Chase points to a variety of airlines or hotels and book rewards directly with the airline or hotel.
IMO, I think Amtrak would benefit from being a partner to one of these portals, esp on the Northeast Corridor where they are competing with bus companies.
