    FastPark is the key. I've tried every option on site... Car to terminal service, shuttles every 5 min, free bottled water and news paper... And it's 8 bucks. Stay away from the daily lot.

    Skip high priced taxis and the irritatingly long trip on Super Shuttle. Take Amtrak to and from DC. It's only $14, super fast and runs every 30 min or so from 5:30 am to 9:30 pm.

    It's all about the terminal at BWI. Southwest terminal rocks while D terminal (airtran, us airways etc) is a notch above the 7th layer of he'll. Just sayin.

    Granted it was a Tuesday early morning flight, but security was SUPER FAST at Terminal D. Much faster than Reagan Airport on a Tuesday AM.

    Nice but way to far from DC and the rental cars are too far away. Wish United had comp fares to DCA. Their fare structure sux!

    The New concorse C security is open and you can walk back to terminal A&B through the now open connector. No lines

    BEWARE: there are mice scurrying around the corridors by gate D36 and D37. By far the grossest thing I've ever seen at an airport. Get your act together BWI!

    I think that's the most convenient airport of the DC area, it has Southwest (cheap flight) and good transportation, and it's not too much of a headache to get in and out.

    If you're traveling Southwest, go through security area C regardless of gate. A little more walking but the line is about half as long.

    If you're outside of security grab a bite at Duclaw's and try the Misfit Red, a Baltmore amber ale

    If you packed a garment bag, the steward(ess) might have space to hang/stow your bag in the closet when you board...

    New C security checkpoint will get you to A and B gates but is a ghost town compared to the A and B checkpoints.

    You can go through any security checkpoint to grab dinner as long as you have a boarding pass for that day. It doesn't matter what airline you're flying.

    If you're going to D.C. go South. Headed to Baltimore? Go North. Headed for trouble? Go straight to hell. Thanks for the ride; it's been pleasant.

    For the A and B gates, there's a second security screening line downstairs! Look past the regular security line and go down those stairs!

    Always something here. On a ground hold and it's 90 and sunny here and where we're headed. Maybe I should try and find a crab cake! Lol

    If you're an evening arrival, have your people pick you up upstairs at departures; Few are there that late and no one is hassling you to move your car and it's much easier to spot your pick up.

    Airport police drive black SUVs and have no problem pulling people over for speeding in the arrival/departure areas. Just watched two people get tagged.

    TSA gets the lines through in a hurry, but if you're in a rush they have checkpoints on the lower level!

    Please watch your speed on your way to the airport. Cops don't care even if you're already running late to catch your flight.

    Print a boarding pass - the mobile doc scanner at security is constantly "out of battery power" and you'll have to go back and print your boarding pass
