Had the absolute pleasure of riding on Amtrak's brand new Airo trainset as it debuted for passenger service on September 30th, 2026 on the Cascades route. First taking Amtrak Cascades 503 (the first ever departure on Airo) in Business to Portland, and returning same day on 508 in Coach. Ride along as I compare Business and Coach on that brand new train smell. 00:00 Amtrak Airo on day one 01:16 Boarding & first impressions 02:00 Business class seats & features 03:53 Café tour & menu 05:45 Doors,
