Drew AspinwallJuly 2, 2010Don't rely on the PA in terminal A; be 'that guy' and stand by your gate when they announce 1k and global. Nearly stayed overnight because calling boarding 4 was too much work for the night crew.
Jeremiah BlatzNovember 26, 2012Don't fly into a busy airport, our else you may end up here for a while.
The Airbus A380 lands every day at 1pm and departs at 4:40 pm
I have never seen security hate their job so much and show it. Take off my sweater? Uhm if I had shit in there I'm sure the detector would have got it. This place I ghetttttoooo!!!!
Jim WilhelmMay 13, 2012Avoid the new credential check machines and lines like the plague, significantly slower than having your information checked manually.
James WardJuly 21, 2016WTF is it with the moon buggies to get you between the gate and the terminal?!
Wow...don't fly international on a Thursday afternoon, the lines are huge!
Mike BarrettApril 26, 2014Took forever to get from my London flight to my connection and I had to go through security again with a bottle of duty free liquor.
Saturday morning travel is redicuously smooth! I highly reccomend it! Security check rocked!
You're lucky if your flight leaves from Concourse B. A, C, and D are simply the most depressing environments of any airport.
Raul BeienheimerJanuary 31, 2014I don't recommend use the free WiFi for confidential information or banking online.
Can't believe in the nation's capital airport you still have to use a "bus" to get to the terminal.
Access to a lounge is the key to survive those long connections.
Give yourself plenty of time: gates are far far away from the main terminal!
if you want ice cream the only place in terminals c and d is potbelly near c2!
The trains finally make this the airport they always wanted it to be...So much better than National...
erin mazurskyApril 1, 2011The new Dulles is so much better than the old Dulles, it was worthy of a tip. Security 3x faster than before. Less chaos.
Don't fly out of Dulles on a Sunday evening. It's totally packed. Lines to wait in other lines.
Carl KulpaNovember 17, 2014Why can't there be public transit lines that connect downtown urban areas with suburban airports?
David BernsteinFebruary 28, 2011Is it just me, or does the terminal building of IAD look similar to the terminal building of TPE to anyone else?
