WASHINGTON — Amtrak has launched a “free companion” sale for roomettes on its long-distance routes, allowing two people to travel in one of the two-bed sleeping-car accommodations for the price of one.

The sale began Thursday, Nov. 30, and runs through Friday, Dec. 8, and is good for travel between Wednesday, Jan. 3, and Wednesday, March 24, 2024, with no blackout dates. Tickets can be booked at this page on the Amtrak website, which also includes terms and conditions, along with other information. Tickets can also be booked on the Amtrak app using code C103.

“For customers seeking extra space, privacy, and comfort on their next trip, a roomette offers a First Class experience with exclusive benefits and incredible views across the country,” Eliot Hamlisch, Amtrak executive vice president and chief commercial officer, said in a press release. “The free companion sale makes the roomette experience even more enjoyable by extending the gift of train travel to a special plus one.”

Sleeping-car accommodations include lounge access at major stations and priority boarding; on-board meals are included in the price of a ticket.
