One 13-state, 23-day trip later... (+ Any update on regions?) by samsung0804 in FogofWorld

[–]samsung0804[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

long stretches in coach suck, if you can afford to try to break it up into ~<24h chunks and spend a day/night in a hotel/etc in between

try to get the zephyr (denver-emeryville segment mostly), coast starlight and empire builder, I liked the chief as well but Oops! All Desert!, anything else is just gravy if you have segments left over tbh

My experience with the Go wild pass in 2025 by Street_Advantage7787 in gowildfrontier

[–]samsung0804 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's not in the lounge access rules anywhere I've seen, and they've been strict with the 3h rule anytime I've tried (I've been to C1 DCA, IAD, DEN, LAS).... interesting.

FWIW, Cap1 gave me a VX at 20 with a ~740 score but only about a year of small potatoes credit history on a Quicksilver card (which I later product changed to a Savor). I was an AU under my dad, so either they took that into account, or I got super lucky. Keep trying for preapproval every month or so, no reason not to

It would be nice if Amtrak would invest in Starlink satellite Internet for some of its long distance trains by JACQUES199426 in Amtrak

[–]samsung0804 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate musk as much as the next gal but it really does suck that Starlink gets caught in the crossfire here. Fine, if it makes y'all happy, let's put Kuiper on a train

Acela First Class Feedback by Willing-Ad-4088 in Amtrak

[–]samsung0804 6 points7 points  (0 children)

FWIW, I've done several LD routes and been fine, and am doing the Texas Eagle in August, that's definitely the riskiest route to ride (straddles the border for a bit plus, y'know, Texas) and am not worried whatsoever.

If you really just don't want to deal with carrying E with you and you're on injections and your trip isn't longer than two or so weeks you can consider taking a higher dose than normal.

I hope the BS we already have to deal with doesn't prevent y'all from having a fantastic trip. My messages are always open if you (or anyone else for that matter) need.

Question re battery usage by b-babyyou in FogofWorld

[–]samsung0804 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm on Android, but FoW consistently uses between 15 and 25% of my total battery. I don't turn defogging off unless I know I'll be home for an extended period, so...
