With the Prem. Class seating, you could of scored a beer or something stronger, as it was included in your price. Depending on your trip time, those trains are packed! The lower fair, means you were traveling during off peak time. Which is why the fair was lower. Once Orlando is up and running, it'll be around 3 hrs from Orlando to Miami. Speeds will be somewhere close to 125mph for the new line of the trip, and from WPB to Cocoa, around 110mph. If you're a sports fan, if you take the train to a ballgame, they have shuttle services running over to the game and back, included. Glad you liked your "care free, car free" ride. (Yeap, thats a Brightline tag line)

An acquaintance of mine, is thinking of taking a repositioning cruise back to United States from Europe, and I was asking how are they were getting from Miami back to Orlando, and he said I’ll just take the train back. And I thought why not ? And you don’t have to worry about leaving your car in a parking lot for a month.

Yes, I would definitely take this train, but I hate how planes, Uber and trains have flex pricing instead of the same cost all times. But I guess that’s because of demand is how many people on a certain time more than the seats then they have to raise the cost, so I guess the people can choose some other times.

Well many commuters are starting to use the south Florida stretch quite a bit so similar to the New York area having some empty Metro North trains it could be caused by off-peak times like non-eventful weekends or you’re riding before or after the rush hour crowd
