The Brightline is officially adding one more stop to its route. Starting September 22, the eco-friendly intercity rail provider will travel between Miami and Orlando. Designed to connect Central and South Florida residents eager to travel, the Brightline has fulfilled the needs of the flourishing travel and tourism industry.
“We have seen incredible enthusiasm from the business and tourism industries eager to travel between Central and South Florida,” notes Patrick Goddard, president of Brightline.
With 16 total train sets running system-wide daily and stations located in Aventura, Ft. Lauderdale, Boca Raton, West Palm Beach, and two flagship locations, MiamiCentral and Orlando International Airport, public transportation networks have never been faster, greener, or more accessible.
Right in time for the fall season, travelers can experience Orlando’s seasonal events, such as Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Orlando Resort and Epcot International Wine & Food Festival.
“As we start service to Orlando for peak holiday seasons, I encourage everyone to check calendars, make plans, visit our website or app and reserve a seat now,” Goddard notes.
Prioritizing comfort, Brightline emphasizes a consumer-first mindset. Travelers can purchase either a Smart ride or a Premium ride. Complete with handcrafted leather seats, complimentary WiFi, multiple power outlets, and various food and beverage options, travelers no matter how quick the journey. Passengers who elect a Premium ticket can also enjoy a dedicated Premium lounge, priority boarding, checked luggage, and complimentary snacks and beverages throughout the journey. Premium passengers can also enjoy complimentary Uber rides to and from the station anywhere within a five-mile radius.
Kicking off the fall season, Brightline is offering promotions designed to suit the needs of every Florida resident. With one-way Smart fares starting at $79 for adults and $39 for kids, groups of four+ will automatically save an additional 25% on Smart fares. Other promotions include premiums and student discounts.
