Amtrak service between Los Angeles and San Diego will return to early 2020 levels with the addition of a 13th Pacific Surfliner round trip, authorities said Tuesday.
According to the Los Angeles-San Diego-San Luis Obispo (LOSSAN) Rail Corridor Agency, the new roundtrips begin Jan. 26.
In addition, between Jan. 26 and March 13, passengers can use the code V526 to receive a 20% discount on Surfliner trips.
“Adding the 13th round trip between Los Angeles and San Diego marks a significant milestone in fully restoring pre-pandemic service levels,” LOSSAN Managing Director Jason Jewell said. “This additional round trip provides travelers with more options to choose the travel times that work best for them.”
With the new line, the Surfliner will offer 13 daily round trips between Los Angeles and San Diego, five between San Diego and Goleta and two between San Diego and San Luis Obispo.
The additional round trip was funded through a $27.1 million grant from the Federal Railroad Administration’s Restoration and Enhancement Grant Program.
The Pacific Surfliner route covers 351 miles, serving 29 stations from San Diego to San Luis Obispo.
