This. Less sketchy. |
| I think getting in at 11:30 and expecting your host to not only wait up for you, but to coordinate your transportation, is diabolical. Get a hotel room for the night! |
| I would tell them honestly that you don't drive at night due to vision issues. For their own safety I can't imagine they'd object. Who would want to risk driving with someone who can't see well?! |
Blacklane or similar |
Plus they'll be upstairs and the arrivals are downstairs. They'll mess it up, then be jerks to the driver and get you a 1 star. They can get their own uber. |
Because Washington Flyer services IAD and OPs relatives are arriving to DCA. |
Are you both older than the relatives you are picking up? Anyway, prearranged car service so someone is waiting with a sign in teh baggage claim area. |
+1. Not only will they pick them up, but they will help them with the luggage. |
Ever! +1 |
There may be no choice. For example if they are coming from a secondary city on the west coast, then it may involve flying to a hub, waiting 2 hours, then geting another flight. |
NP - absolutely there could be no choice. I still wouldn’t expect my family, who would be hosting me for five days, to schlep to the airport at 11:30pm to pick me up. |
They have choices ..Rental car at airport. Or figure their transportation out on their on as an adult. |
