VIA Rail Promotions (2x the points and 40% off rewards)

As you already know, travelling by train is pretty much my favourite way to commute. So I am always happy to see some decent promotions offered by VIA Rail. Below are two offers that covers certain travel the next few months.

The second promotion is that you can redeem 40% fewer points when you book a reward trip on the Ocean or the Canadian in class of service for trips between December 17, 2015 and March 31, 2016.
