So, six Acela one-ways will garner two free one-ways. Would three Acela one-ways produce one free one-way, or would you get nothing? I will have no problem maxing out on the Regional offer, but my Acela trips are less frequent.

You need six one-ways on Acela (or four on Regional) for the reward. Nothing for three.

Does anybody know whether the vouchers are transferable? I read all of the rules I could find, but didn't see anything about that. It appears that more specifics won't be attached to the vouchers until they're redeemable in July, but perhaps someone else noticed something I didn't...

However, by calling up AGR any agent can redeem those points and issue tickets in someone else's name.
