For those traveling to D.C. by plane: Reagan National Airport (DCA) is the most convenient destination. It is located within a 15-minute cab ride to the Key Bridge Marriott. Dulles International Airport (IAD) is approximately 40 minutes by cab to the Key Bridge Marriott. Baltimore-Washington International Airport (BWI), depending on traffic, is 1 to 2 hours by cab to the Key Bridge Marriott. Flights into BWI are often the least expensive. For estimated cab fares from the 3 airports, please consult the Key Bridge Marriott’s website. Super Shuttle also provides services (for about half the cost of a cab ride) to anywhere in the D.C. area. No conference shuttle will be provided. Amtrak trains arrive at Union Station. Participants may also take the Washington, D.C. Metro from Union Station and Reagan National Airport to Rosslyn station (just a couple of blocks from the hotels). Metro is often faster than a cab ride, especially from Union Station. Click here for a map of the D.C. Metro.
