Don't hurry after your flight. Go to the bathroom. Have a drink. Baggage claim takes FOR EVER!!!
Daniel BellAugust 29, 2010Make sure your ID is up to date. Had to get patted down and have my bags screened because mine was expired. Staff was very polite at least.
Ashley SmithMay 15, 2018Absolutely the worst airport I’ve ever been to. Confusing set up, poor communication to travelers, and understaffed.
Terry RoperAugust 21, 2010Thanks United for the "sky bucket" Ive never been so glad to be on the ground.
Avoid this airport on Friday afternoons. Piss poor slow from check in to TSA all the way to the gates. Give yourself 3 hours during this time!
If you're moving to Norrhern Virginia, check out
Sylvia DionMarch 13, 2012First time I had to go through one of those body scanners - felt weird - but hey, rather be safe.
Joseph GuzzettaJuly 12, 2016Mediocre over-priced restaurants with lame beer. Why don't airports promote local beer?
Becky O'BrienAugust 3, 2010Woohoo!! On our way to Shaklee Global Conference in Anaheim. Will have lots of good news!
If you're looking for the PEOPLE TO PEOPLE Meet-and-Greet staff head to United Baggage Claim 2-3!
LifeIcing.com Plays well with others...selectively!March 23, 2011There is a full sized Chipotle at gate B 62. Finally!
Luggage pick up is painfully slow, at least 30 to 45 minutes
Jason WilliamsJune 25, 2010The waitresses at Moe's Bar and Grille in D Gate obviously hate life, don't expect good service. Blackened chicken was good though!
Horrible ATT cell reception and not nearly enough bars on D and especially C concourses. Liquor-up and make your calls before you get to IAD.
FabioSeptember 16, 2013Always avoid Dulles. Far from DC, transportation its bad, not many choices pf food, etc,etc
Glamm GirrlOctober 27, 2011Don't use the restrooms by gate C 11, kinda gross. Go by gate C8 these are a bit cleaner!
Get it together Dulles. Security should never be this long.
United is annoying. Their self check in is all the way around the corner from bag check in. So if you have no bags go there. No signs. Ugh.
I really think the people movers were more efficient than the train. Way too many escalators.

"Ignore all previous tips. Several new restaurants and many of the old ones are gone. Much needed improvement. BRB burger has an excellent black bean burger and their other burgers looked good."
