After a long suspension, our members can continue to earn Amtrak Guest Rewards® points with their membership dues! Effective November 15, 2020, the Rail Passengers Association will resume awarding Amtrak Guest Rewards® points for new or renewed memberships.
As before, any Amtrak Guest Rewards® points received will reduce the tax-deductible amount of your membership dues, at a rate of 2.5¢ per point.
See the table below to find out how many points you can receive with your Association dues:
Points earned are based on membership level and whether dues are paid annually or monthly.
-
New and renewed memberships purchased on or after November 15, 2020, with a valid Amtrak Guest Rewards® account with Amtrak, will be eligible for Amtrak Guest Rewards® points, if you’ve added your Amtrak Guest Rewards® number to the membership record.
-
If you do not have your Amtrak Guest Rewards® number in your Rail Passengers Association membership record at the time of your purchase, that membership purchase will not be eligible to receive Amtrak Guest Rewards® points.
-
Monthly members will receive points on a prorated basis.
-
New or renewed memberships purchased between May 1 and November 15, 2020 are ineligible for Amtrak Guest Rewards® points until they are renewed in 2021.
-
The Association sends members’ Amtrak Guest Rewards® information to the program administrators at the end of each month. Please allow between 4-6 weeks for your points to appear in your Amtrak Guest Rewards® account.
-
We do not own or manage Amtrak or the Amtrak Guest Rewards® program. Your Association has no control over your Amtrak Guest Rewards® points or over how you may use them. Amtrak sets those policies. Please contact Amtrak with any questions about the Amtrak Guest Rewards® program.
"I’m so proud that we came together in bipartisan fashion in the Senate to keep the Southwest Chief chugging along, and I’m grateful for this recognition from the Rail Passengers Association. This victory is a testament to what we can accomplish when we reach across the aisle and work together to advance our common interests."
Senator Tom Udall (D-NM)
