how to book a rewards ticket
Okay, this is going to seem like a silly question. How do I book a rewards ticket? I haven't done this in a couple years, and it looks like the webpage has changed.
I went to the AGR website for point redemption (https://www.amtrakguestrewards.com/redeem), and it just points me to the standard amtrak.com booking page, which is the page for cash purchases. I went through it a few times to make sure I wasn't missing anything, but there's no options or buttons for point redemption, it just keeps making me do cash purchases. What obvious page/button am I missing?

Start a standard purchase, and when you get to the search results, there will be buttons at the top to toggle between dollars and points.
