Please keep in mind that many connecting bus routes require reservations and fill up fast. We encourage you to book early, and if possible, avoid travel on the busiest days — the day before and the Sunday after Thanksgiving. Once you’ve booked your ticket, there’s no need to print it; you can pull up the PDF of your ticket (with the QR code) on your phone and show the conductor.

Got luggage? Please review Amtrak’s baggage policy. You may bring two bags and two carry-on personal items, collectively weighing up to 150 pounds, for free. Excess bags will cost $20.

We look forward to welcoming you aboard the Capitol Corridor this holiday season. Happy Thanksgiving and safe travels!
