Is the Brightline worth it?

I booked basic and premium seats on Florida's Brightline train, and the $20 upgrade cost was well worth it for its many perks. I rode the Brightline train on both of the offered class fares, smart and premium. Smart tickets on Brightline can start at $10 one-way, while premium tickets tend to start at $27.
