When i go visit my friends in downtown San Diego I take the Train since it's actually cheaper than driving, plus parking is not readily available. Anyone else use it? I've actually been able to take my last few trips for free due to the points ive earned on their guest rewards.
IF this high speed rail service ever gets built it will actually be faster to take the train from LA to SF than to deal with the airport.

worth it!

less! ive taken from SB-SD for about $28(I use a 20% off code for travel from SB county)
Sounds like it might be cheaper to buy a ticket from carpinteria-san diego so the 20% can be applied.
well if anyone is planning on taking a trip in the next few months and IS NOT a member of their guest rewards program PM me and i will let you know how you can earn a free 1 way business class trip after your first purchase.

its $34/$48 each way Union Station to downtown SD...so for 2 people it costs way more than driving even with parking. having said that i've been wanting to do it myself one of these days. and somewhere around here i think i have some 50% off coupons....gotta dig them up.
