Amtrak has recently unveiled the Amtrak Student Discount to help students commute by train. With a valid student ID, anyone ages 17-25 can save 15% off the lowest Value or Flexible Fare year round if you book at least 3 days in advance. This proves to be especially great here in Champaign-Urbana, where the Amtrak can connect students from Chicagoland to the U of I for cheaper than ever before.
Enjoying your college experience but still want to travel back home or just want to explore some new turf away from campus? Now you can with the Amtrak Student Discount. If you’re a student age 17 – 25 with a valid student ID, you’re eligible for 15% off the lowest Value or Flexible Fare when you book your travel at least 3 days in advance.
Been a while since you’ve seen the family or friends? Mom’s hugs and doing free laundry are just a train ride away. With comfortable, spacious seating and outlets to keep you charged, you’ll be able to relax while getting some stuff done. Plus, Amtrak lets you bring up to two carry-on bags and two checked bags (where checked baggage is available) all for free. With free Wi-Fi on many routes you can browse, post and stay connected along the way.
So whether you’re visiting family or friends, following your team to the next away game, or just need a quick getaway, skip the headaches and hassles of the road and leave the driving to us.
