Pacific Surfliner Service: Extra Round Trip Added for Comic-Con and Del Mar Racing



 

Effective July 19 - 23, 2017

 

Amtrak has added extra trains and capacity on the Pacific Surfliner between July 19 and 23, 2017 to accommodate the surge of travelers headed to San Diego Comic-Con International and the Del Mar Racetrack.


Added Trains

 

  • Train 568 will depart Los Angeles at 8:50 am on July 19, 20 and 21, 2017, making all Amtrak stops to San Diego, arriving at 12:45 pm.

  • Train 1568 will depart Los Angeles at 10:00 am on July 22 and 23, 2017, making all Amtrak stops to San Diego, arriving at 1:16 pm.

  • Train 593 will depart San Diego at 7:51 pm on July 19, 20, 21, 22 and 23, 2017, making all Amtrak stops to Los Angeles, arriving at 10:53 pm.


 

High Demand Between Los Angeles and San Diego

 

This year, San Diego Comic-Con International falls on the same weekend as the start of the summer racing season at the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club. Trains are expected to be very busy between Los Angeles and San Diego from July 19 to July 23.

Extra seating has been added to select trains to increase capacity, but peak trains will still be extremely crowded between Los Angeles and San Diego. Visit the Pacific Surfliner blog for tips on how to avoid peak trains and follow @PacSurfliners on Twitter for status updates.


 

Upgrade to Business Class

 

Business Class seats are selling out quickly. Consider upgrading to Business Class if tickets are still available to have a guaranteed seat and other perks, such as a fully refundable ticket if canceled prior to departure, 25% point bonus for Amtrak Guest Rewards members; complimentary beverages and light snacks; and more.

 

For reservations and information, visit Amtrak.com, use our free mobile apps, speak with station personnel or call 1-800-USA-RAIL (1-800-872-7245).

 

Thank you for traveling with Amtrak.
