arrive is Amtrak's onboard magazine for business travelers. It provides millions of passengers with vital information and welcome entertainment to help make most of visits to the major destination cities of the Northeastern United States.

arrive is published bimonthly and delivers constant exposure on all Northeast trains as well as the ClubAcela station lounges. Its goal is to provide a unique and intelligent view of America's most compelling urban centers of commerce, government and the arts.

The tone of the magazine is entertaining yet informative, casual yet consuming. It is the perfect travel partner—a knowledgeable guide and an entertaining companion. And for Amtrak's time-sensitive riders, it is always available within arm's reach ... it is the only magazine within reach.

arrive delivers equally compelling value to advertisers. It reaches and influences a unique and valuable audience at precisely the moment when it is most receptive to a wide variety of business-, travel- and entertainment-related ad messages. And arrive readers are downtown visitors—that's why they use Amtrak and Acela. No other magazine delivers such a targeted audience of affluent visitors to Northeast cities.

Little luxuries onboard

If you’re one of our first-class passengers aboard Acela Express, you may notice some upgrades to the service. As a result of your feedback, we’ve made changes to provide you with a first-rate travel experience.

We're once again offering Acela Express first-class passengers a choice of appetizinghot and cold meals served on china. We’ve also expanded our beverage service to includebetter wine selections.

We hope small touches like the complimentary newspaper and hot towel service make the trip more enjoyable and relaxing. In this day and age of impersonal interaction, it’s nice toget some personalized attention.

Our aim is to offer you a sanctuary from the hustle and bustle on your way to your destination. Speaking of destinations, we’re justabout midway through our fiscal year.

We have an aggressive capital plan to improve our fleet and infrastructure and we’re on target to meet our year-end goals. Internally, we’re changing the way we do some things to serve you better.

We look forward to continuing to be the transportation choice of millions more passengers and know that accomplishing that involves making sure that you feel like you’re getting value for the price of the ticket—that is our ultimate goal. So please sit back, relax and have a safe and enjoyable journey.

Sincerely,
David J. Hughes
Acting President and Chief Executive Officer
