If you're traveling among vacation destinations in Florida, you may want to take a train instead of your car or a plane. That's what one TikToker did. She left her vehicle at home, and she traveled to the cruise port in Miami by train.
Mommashive (@mommashive) posted a video about traveling in style on the Brightline train for a family cruise. When they arrived at the station, they checked their bags so they could eat. The mom of three noted there were a lot of food options, but given that it was early in the morning and not busy, choices were limited.

Still, their premium tickets provided access to a lounge, which had breakfast prepared. Next, they boarded the train.
"I feel like this is the bourgiest train you'll ever go on," she said.
As she walked up to the train, it was covered in sights of Florida, including flamingos, a golfer, and palm trees. She entered the train to find her seat, which looked comfy. She enjoyed an energy drink and some popcorn on the journey.
Mommashive noted that parking at the cruise port costs about $40 a day, so that can rack up a pretty big bill depending on the length of your cruise.

Mammashive isn't the only TikToker enjoying the experience of the high-speed Brightline train. Another person who went from Orlando to Miami shared the three ticket options you can purchase: premium, smart, and smart saver.
Florida isn't the only place where you can hop on a train for your vacation. While Amtrak isn't a high-speed rail, it can still get you around the Northeast. One TikToker shared her experience, including not having to deal with the stress of baggage claim for her trip from Washington, D.C., to New York City. You can even save money on your ticket if you book in advance.
Additionally, traveling by train is a great low-impact option. By taking the train for just one trip, you can reduce your polluting gas emissions by about 86%.
According to T&E, air travel is a significant contributor to the warming of the planet because it relies on dirty energy sources.
