[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who cares about the name?? It’s been called Dulles for so long that even if you change it now, people are still going to call it Dulles.
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 .[/quote]

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.  [/quote]

Dulles is the least used airport in the region, it should be shut down[/quote]

:lol:  :lol: 
Now you're just spewing lies as you stomp your feet?  Dulles is the largest and busiest airport in the DC area.  But you knew that.

Washington Dulles International Airport is located 26 miles from DC in suburban Virginia. Dulles Airport is also the primary international airport for the DC region, with almost 140 nonstop domestic and international destinations on nearly 40 airlines.

It's the busiest airport in the D.C. metro area, with 36 million passengers passing through its halls in 2018. If you're flying internationally, this is probably the airport you should pick, as it has 57 nonstop options to Africa, Asia, Europe, and South America (plus 87 nonstop domestic routes).

BWI has more passengers per year than IAD and DCA. Clearly you're stupid.[/quote]

I’ve provided citations.  Where are yours?  You have none so you resort to lying. As usual.[/quote]
