Why pay full price when you can get a big discount? If that’s your mentality, Brightline’s Black Friday promotions are worth checking out. There are discounts on Smart, Premium, and kids fares, valid for travel through February of next year. Brightline is also offering bonuses on gift card purchases for a few days.

However, you need to book soon to get these deals. Let’s check them out.

Brightline Black Friday Promotion

If you book by December 1, 2024, you can score $29 Smart Saver, $19 Kid Smart Saver, and $89 Premium fares for travel between Orlando and South Florida. Eligible travel on this deal runs through February 28, 2025.

There’s no promo code need for this sale. However, you must book at least 7 days in advance to get the discounted price.

Brightline is providing bonuses on gift card purchases as well. Through December 2, 2024, you can get a bonus gift card along with your purchase:

  • $10 when buying a $100 gift card
  • $15 when buying a $150 gift card
  • $20 when buying a $200 gift card
  • $25 when buying a $250 gift card
Hot Tip:

When paying for your train tickets, consider paying with a credit card that earns bonus rewards on travel.

Is It Worth It?

If you’re a fan of train travel and live in or are visiting Florida, you’re likely familiar with Brightline. Fares between South Florida and Orlando start around $200 per adult for a round-trip premium ticket. The ride between Miami and Orlando takes approximately 3.5 hours.

Looking at those numbers, you could potentially fly cheaper or drive faster between these cities. However, if you factor in parking, a rental car, hassle, time waiting at the airport, and other pain points of air travel, Brightline’s train routes may look more attractive.

And if you like trains for their lack of “get to the airport 2 hours early,” this fare deal can present a good opportunity to save money on train travel in Florida.

Final Thoughts

Those looking for a discount on train travel in Florida should definitely sign up for Brightline’s newsletter. That way, you’ll get notified of deals that aren’t listed on the company’s website — such as today’s email that went out with Black Friday — or Bright Friday, as the company is calling it — deals.

For the next few days, you can get a bonus gift card when buying gift cards or lock in low prices on train travel between southern Florida and Orlando.
