Amtrak covers long-distance and Northeast Corridor routes across the U.S. and a few Canadian cities. We are not Amtrak and we do not sell rail as self-serve checkout. Search a flight for the same cities, or ask an advisor to quote air.
When the train wins
Center-to-center trips such as New York–Washington or Philadelphia–New York often beat flying once you count airport time. Scenic long-distance trains (Coast Starlight, California Zephyr) are the trip, not just transport.
When flying is faster
Coast-to-coast and most Florida trips are usually quicker by air. Run the search on this page for those dates and compare total travel time, not just ticket price.
