Amtrak offering a sweet deal on tickets perfect for you and your Valentine’s Day date

Amtrak is offering a sweet deal perfect for a last-minute Valentine’s Day gift — but you’ll have to act quickly.

Travelers can buy one coach ticket and get one free for any trips between March 9 and Aug. 30, Amtrak announced Thursday. There are no blackout dates.

“Amtrak is offering a great way for customers and their loved ones to travel for a weekend away or on a leisurely vacation,” Amtrak wrote in a news release. “From couples, to moms, to friends, to every loved one, Amtrak encourages individuals to give more than chocolates, flowers and valentines this year.”

The sale began Thursday and continues through Monday.

Here are just a few examples of how cheap tickets are under the deal. Two people can travel from Kansas City to St. Louis for $36, Seattle to Portland for $36, Los Angeles to Albuquerque for $86 or D.C. to Chicago for $105.
