Metrolink has announced that its “$10 Holiday Ticket” will beavailable for Christmas Day and New Year’s Day, providing unlimited rides to help travelers get to their essential destinations. The discounted fare is available through Metrolink’s mobile app or at a contactless Metrolink station ticket machine.
On Christmas Day and New Year’s Day, Metrolink will offer its Sunday schedule with service on the Antelope Valley, San Bernardino, 91/Perris Valley and Orange County lines. However, there will be no service on the Ventura County or Riverside lines on these two holidays. Metrolink will operate regularly scheduled service on both Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve. Following Christmas Day, regular Metrolink service resumes tomorrow, Dec. 26, and on Jan. 2 after New Year’s Day. Also, in response to the cancellation of the Tournament of Roses Parade, Metrolink will not operate early morning trains on either the Antelope Valley Line or the San Bernardino Line as has been offered in previous years on New Year’s Day. Amtrak will suspend the Rail 2 Rail program aboard all Amtrak Pacific Surfliner trains between Oceanside and Ventura from Wednesday, Dec. 23, through Monday, Dec. 28. During non-blackout dates, the Rail 2 Rail program allows Metrolink Monthly Pass holders along the Orange County and Ventura County line corridors to travel on Amtrak Pacific Surfliner trains within the station pairs of their pass at no additional charge.
