Really appreciate Amtrak posts. I imagine a large percentage of the readership resides on the East Coast, so news about the NEC is pretty useful to many.

Do you know if you have to register for the promotion before booking travel, or if you just need to register before departure? I booked some tickets a few hours earlier today and only just saw this. The T&C doesn’t explicitly mention registering before booking tix, so hopefully that means i’m eligible!

I did the same thing. I did read this: Retroactive Credit: Points for Amtrak travel may take up to 3 weeks to post to the Member’s account. Points for 8000-series Thruway service travel may take up to 90 days to be credited. If the Membership Number was not included in the reservation, retroactive credit may be requested within 120 days of travel. The Member may request retroactive credit online using the Missing Points Request Form. The Member may also request retroactive credit by contacting the Amtrak Guest Rewards Service Center. Points will not be awarded for travel on Amtrak made without a Membership Number using unreserved tickets unless the unreserved ticket has the Member’s name on the eTicket or ticket stub. If a Member purchases a ticket for Amtrak travel on board an Amtrak train, the Member may request retroactive credit by contacting the Amtrak Guest Rewards Service Center.
Point earning opportunities may be available by purchasing products or service
