Pretty great. I get in, I sit down in a big comfy seat, and I stretch my legs all the way out in a really roomy area. I watch the landscape speed past and I do work on my laptop. If I'm hungry I grab food from the cafe car. It's amazing. There are delays, and the conductors are often overworked and rushing all around. ...

I've always heard mixed reviews about the Amtrak experience. I decided to give the 'slow way' a try and see how the experience is. I can pleasantly say that it was delightfully enjoyable! Below is a short summary of my recent trip from Kalamazoo to Detroit. First of all, the mobile app is super easy to search and book....
Boarding is seamless. Just step on and take a seat anywhere. The train is comfortable and spacious - much larger than a bus or plane. Every seat has an outlet and lots of leg room. Luggage seems to be no issue since there are large shelves in each car for suitcases, as well as large overhead racks. The seats are large ...
De-boarding was just a simple. Just gather your bags and step off. Both the station in Kalamazoo and Detroit were simple and clean. Every staff member I encountered seemed friendly and helpful. All in all, the trip was super pleasant. I never considered the train because I thought it would be complicated, but it's just...
The train is definitely not overly luxurious by any means, but meets all the expectations of travel. The trip does take a bit longer than driving, especially if you have to drive to and wait at the station. But quite frankly, I think the convenience factors outweigh the timeliness factor. I will definitely be doing thi...

Train was clean and on time mostly. The ticket staff were great. Dining experience: the Hamburger meat was dry and rubbery. Morning breakfast staff was rude in an mostly quiet empty restaurant... Every 5 minutes I was asked, "Are you done?" I mean it's breakfast. I want to eat well at 8am in an fairly empty restaurant....

1st time in USA and not familiar with train system. Today we purchased Amtrak two tickets for $160 from New York to Philadelphia for 9.30 am (we didn’t know that last destination is Harrisburg), saleswoman advised to take train to Washington, which was scheduled for 9.35am, which stops at Philadelphia. Consequently we ...

We were on an anniversary trip touring National Parks. What a nightmare. Trains were late every time. We were told someone would be there to pick us up because we were on a tour. Never happen. Train was dirty. Toilets broke and trash was full all the time. It was a nightmare. We paid 8500. For this trip and all we got ...

Left Milwaukee on Amtrak's Empire Builder on July 13th. Not even the beauty of Glacier National Park could save this experience. Everything about Amtrak is 1960's. The cars and their systems are old and completely unreliable. The sleeping compartments are tiny beyond belief. The in-room toilet/shower facility is built ...

Ok, I really don't like to fly, so if there is an opportunity to take the train, I will explore it. Keep in mind that Amtrak is full of problems - terrible to great stations dependant on your origin and destination. I know this and I know a lot about the low funding. But like any other service industry, you try to do y...
1). Priority boarding was called and passengers who were in line, got on while an overhead station announcement was being heard. Afterwards, 1 other person got in the priority line and the attendant just held him up without asking him if he was priority. He was soon joined by 3 elderly people. The attendant never looke...
2) Getting on the train. Not a pleasant young woman directed us to a car that had numerous reserved seat signs and became forceful With her voice when a passenger who couldn't find a seat passed by me to go to another car as I was heading into the seemingly full car. "Sir, sir, where are you going?" Answer, "There are ...
3) I booked business class for another 40 dollars coming down and was treated like royalty. You would have thought I was Frodo in the kingdom of the Elves. In regular class, it's as if you are lower than life. Such a difference than flying. So, the 3 stars is for the great trip down and the crazy trip back. Did I menti...

About Jewel Junkie
JEWEL JUNKIE - WHAT'S YOUR ADDICTION? - COSTUME JEWELRY ALL PRICED UNDER $20.00
IF YOU NEED HELP WE WILL WORK WITH YOU TO FIND THE BEST PIECES TO MATCH YOUR DRESSES! JUST CHECK US OUT ON FACEBOOK. WWW.FACEBOOK.COM/JEWELJUNKIE OR EMAIL US AT JEWELJUNKIEGIRLS@AOL.COM
Jewel Junkie is a home-based jewelry business established by "co-dealers" Meghan Kornn and Kelley Vantre in May of 2011.
Jewel Junkie conducts business via home parties. Our representatives will come to your venue with a sizeable and very diverse collection of inventory. Merchadise will be fashionably presented and professionally displayed, and your guests are free to pick out any p...ieces they'd like for themselves. Our pieces are some...
Our items are purchased by our representatives, they are not custom-made. We do not offer products through catalog order. What you see at a show is what you get. Occasionally, we may be able to reorder a favorite piece, but this is rarely possible, as inventory sells out quickly with our companies.
Jewel Junkie differs from many home-based jewelry businesses in that we offer a strict "cash and carry" concept: Customers can buy their pieces and take them home that same night. We take pride in knowing that the customer knows what she wants and can get that instant gratification.
One of the best perks in dealing with us is that our sets are affordable! Many jewelry pieces are available in specialty stores or through other companies but Jewel Junkie offers our pieces at a fraction of their costs! Less cost for you equals more business for us! It's a win-win situation!
You can book a home party for you and your friends simply by emailing us, sending us a message on Facebook, or contacting either Meghan or Kelley. We can answer any questions you may have and we offer great incentives for booking a party! As hostess, you get 40% off your total purchases, PLUS a free piece of jewelry fo...
