VIA Rail Summer Travel Deal for Parents and Grandparents
Posted on Tue, July 8, 2008 at 5:42 pm
For travel now thru to September 15, 2008, for every senior, student (18+), youth (18-25) or adult-fare ticket purchased in VIA's Comfort Class, a child age 2-11 travels for free. Available on every VIA train system-wide, the "Kids Travel Free" program makes it even more affordable to plan the perfect family getaway on VIA while exploring some of Canada's most exciting destinations.
Looking to be pampered? VIA's Silver & Blue class service on the Canadian (western) and Easterly class service on the Ocean (eastern) provide comfortable sleeping accommodations and meals throughout the trip. All year round, kids receive a 25% discount off the best adult fare available when travelling with an adult. What better way for parents or grandparents to spend some quality time with children this summer.
