Amtrak has launched a newly designed www.Amtrak.com with several added features to book tickets online.
The enhanced web site has a fresh look with updated and reorganized content and functionality.
“The new Amtrak.com offers customers improved navigation to make access to needed information faster and more intuitive,” said Kathleen Gordon, senior director, e-Commerce.
She said an enhanced fare-finder feature consolidates all booking functionality – reservations, train status, schedule search and the “My Trip” section – into a single menu.
Customers can now find the train they want by sorting by departure time, lowest cost and trip time, according to Amtrak.
In addition, the new site shows full-day train availability that reflects an entire day of available seats and includes first class as well as diagrams of sleeping accommodations.
Two southbound trains from New York to Miami stop in Jacksonville, as do two northbound trains.
