Ugh, I hate National. So hard to get to, park, etc.


National is the only airport actually convenient for people who live in DC.


And Dulles is the only airport actually convenient for people who live in the DC suburbs of VA.


The BFE portions of VA.


BFE?


Bum f**k Egypt.

Y’all should be grateful that we have three airports to choose from — each serving 20-25 million passengers annually and spread out in different parts of the metropolitan region.

The bigger issue is that it takes almost two hours to get off the plane and to your car. The passport control line is such a nightmare.

Why not change it to BLM. Then also get the airport codes to change to BLM for the former Dulles airport and RNA for Reagan National airport. Just need to take those codes from a small airport in Monmouth NJ and one of the Solomon Islands. Problem solved.

That's what people who live among urban blight and don't get out much call the rest of the world.

The name is not the problem. The most offensive thing about that airport is the mobile lounge / people mover things that they still use, and are about to spend millions of dollars renovating instead of building an underground railway. I literally hate the place because of those things. I don’t hate any other airport, I don’t hate a train or bus station or any other entity. But Dulles sucks so bad- It’s like we have a 3rd world airport in our nations capital, and as soon as DCA or BWI have international flights, I’ll never have to fly out of Dulles again .


Wow, are you unhinged! There IS an underground train there already. And the people movers are no big deal. Dulles is infinitely better than National or BWI.


The underground train serves only 1 terminal, and does not move any of the passengers on international flights. They should have built the underground train for the entire airport, but didn’t due to cost. Now they are about to waste millions refurbishing the people movers. As someone who flies frequently, there is literally no other major airport in the world that makes passengers get off a plane and then have to wait in line, board one of those things, wait around 10 more minutes for the stragglers coming off the plane to get on, be crammed inside, travel across the tarmac and then wait to get off again, all before you’ve even gone through customs. It is a 3rd world airport.


With you on this…

Apparently so. No examples of the "racism" Dulles supposedly exhibited. None. Just the usual unhinged, LWNJ rants. Reported to Jeff but still up.

Flew into Schipol in June, had to go down the stairs, crowd into a bus, ride to the terminal and then begin the mile long walk to customs. I don’t love the Peoplemovers, but yes, there are other inconvenient airports.


That hasn't been experience at Schiopol at all.

London used to be a nightmare of walking and trains to get to customs, but it has improved.

NP. There are more than a few of us on DCUM who grow weary of reading unsubstantiated charges of racism. If you're going to call someone out as a racist, then you better be prepared to pony up some facts as evidence. Otherwise, you simply look dumb and unhinged. And when you start insulting other posters who call you out for a lack of evidence, you look even dumber and more unhinged.

I will take a people mover over having to take stairs at Frankfurt and the mile long hikes between terminals. There are no elevators or escalators. Stairs. Stairs to the bus to take you to the plane. Stairs between terminals. Stairs everywhere.

Dulles still sucks, even if there is another airport that sucks more.
