No Precheck or Clear through Dulles and presumably checking a bag? I’d do 2-3 hours.

1. They are going to IAD - which is a bit longer depending on which gate and airline.

2. It's never Reagan. Always national.


Nope. Reagan.

This thread is about international flights out of Dulles.

They typically start boarding for international flights much earlier than domestic.
No way would I try to arrive just an hour before my flight at IAD.
I do about 3 hours.

I’ve never been told that I couldn’t use TSA pre at IAD, no matter the airline/destination. But agree on 2 hours. It was a total madhouse 10 days ago on a Friday evening. 2 hours was plenty, but I wouldn’t have wanted to cut it closer.

Half an hour for an international flight won’t work a large percentage of the time.


Agree, I've actually missed a flight getting to IAD an hour before because there was a large line at security.

What airline? Most foreign airlines participate in TSA pre-check.

I'd get there around 6:30pm and then just hang in a lounge with my extra time.

We arrive THREE hours beforehand. I hate it.

IAD, Friday night in July, 9pm international flight? Flying a foreign carrier so can’t do TSA-Pre. Just spitballing here for planning purposes.

Thanks!
