swampfox Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 Okay, I am paying for some train tickets for a friend so he can come down and go to Busch Gardens Europe with me next month, and was wondering how I can pay for his tickets. The amtrak website was no help. I know they have kiosk things in their stations, but a credit card has to be used for those, and the tickets would have to be in his name, and I'd be using my card. Anyone else have experience with how to handle this? I'm becoming worried that it may be really complicated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edh Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 Just go to Amtrak and explain the situation. You could just buy the tickets, and put all his info on it. Just ask for them to send it to his address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swampfox Posted May 20, 2007 Author Share Posted May 20, 2007 Thanks. Was a bit worried. Some companies are anal about such things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swampfox Posted May 21, 2007 Author Share Posted May 21, 2007 I tried Amtrak.com. The way they explained things, it seemed like the person who buys the ticket has to pick it up. I won't be there to do so. If you use the kiosk system, you need a credit card, which my friend doesn't have, and if he did, the credit card wouldn't work, as it's in his name, not me, the ticket buyer's.

AznShortBoi8021 Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 You can mail your friend a check and he can go to a ticket agent to buy his ticket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
