Right now, Amtrak offers "First Class" on Acela, and considers buying sleeper accommodations as first class. That's it, only on those trains. Business Class is offered on other LD or Regional Trains.
What if Amtrak were to upgrade some coaches, including the upcoming Airo, to include a first class car, above and beyond business? Use a business class car, but upgrade the amenities similar to Acela. Or designate half-a-business class car.
Amenities
-At seat service
-Complimentary Food and Beverage (the food will have to be better than what's currently in the Cafe)
-Access to station lounges
-Assigned seating
Thoughts?
