I am having problems booking a flight out to DC, either the airport is quite a distance or the airline flight schedule is less than preferable.


I know where are people out there that travel back and forth to Dallas. Can you offer up any experienced knowledge on what works best for you?

Thank you so very much!

...having just looked at your pictures, please remember that I am always available to pick you up at hte airport and whisk you directly to your first appointment, and then off to wherever you want to go.  Aruba?  Fine.



As to your question, don't discount BWI.  It is about 45 minutes to DC in general, but there are plenty of inexpensive options for that trek.  Hell I once flew out of BWI beacuse of "schedule" and found that I could rent a car at Reagan National (very close to me) and drop it at BWI that morning for about $30 or so.  Cheaper than a cab, or most other options.  

So if schedule is important, keep BWI open as an option and work the rest of the logistics from there.  Usuing Kayak.com and selecting "include nearby airports" will pull BWI into your search.

Use BWI

Where in DC are you going?  That makes a big difference.

Reagan is probably going to be the closest in, but will often be more expensive.  American has the most flights there from DFW.

As others have said, look at BWI.  Especially on Southwest from Love Field.

Southwest to BWI. There are buses to DC but you can even take the train - there is a BWI stop. I think it's like $16 on Amtrak or something. Comes in to Union Station.

$12 on AMTRAK, $6 on the commuter line.  Comfortable, easy.
