    I don't fly a lot, and I don't fly Dulles a lot, so it's been quite a few years. This is an…read moreinternational airport and so will often be the destination of choice for those that can't get flights into DCA. The airport has changed over the years, but I was surprised by the extent to which those changes did not make it better. For one thing, even with the Metro's silver line now extending to and beyond the airport, it was useless to me. Even with a flight boarding at the non-crazy hour of 8 AM on a Sunday, the Metro did not open up early enough on a weekend to be confident of getting there from the city in time. Arriving inside the airport led me to a snazzy new intra-airport train, but the train stop was so far from the actual departure gate to which my small regional flight was assigned that it barely helped. I liked the Washington DC-themed decor, but the reality is that this airport is a long way from DC, practically speaking. For those driving, there is a road which charges a toll to non-airport destinations but will get you from the beltway to the airport toll-free. I found that Google Maps did not understand the parking garages so you will be better served by just reading the traffic signs as I fortunately did. I found only a handful of places to charge a device and scant seating that left a lot of people standing in wait for a plane. The bottom line is that it isn't as convenient of an airport, either internally or relative to the community, as it should be.

    Came here to for a flight overseas. Dulles is my go to airport for international travel close to…read moreBaltimore. Our driving time was around an hour )the traffic was decent). We pre-paid for parking at the airport lot which allowed us to literally walk into the airport in less than 5 minutes. Dulles is pretty big, so we had a little walk to the security area and then our boarding gate. There are plenty of eateries, shops, and the like in addition to airport lounges (additional fees may apply or they may be free with your credit card or airline ticket class) to come and eat, drink, and relax before your flight. All in all, Dulles has proved to be a solid airport that meets my international travel needs close a shorfrom Baltimore.

    Ok, first it's worth it to use for extended travel, say a week or nore…read more Now, the nitty grtty. The instructions on line don't fully explain what you need to know. Upon arrival you need to flash the barcode on the receipt you need to print out with your reservation. There might not be an attendant there so ty he barcode reader will raise the gate and let you in. A shuttle will take you from the garage basically across the street to the Crown Plaza Hotel which has shuttles to Dulles Airport every 30 minutes. Pretty simple. What they don't tell you is how to get back to your car after you return from your trip. You pick up the shuttle where all the other hotel shuttles pick up passengers, at the far end of the terminal baggage claim level. When you board, you must tell the driver you want to be dropped off at the Herndon Park and Fly. The shuttle you took from the garage to the Crown Plaza only drops off. It does not pick up...thst is, it's parked at the garage. It only goes to the hotel when someone at the garage needs to go there. So if you don't know this, like I didn't, you end up at stranded at the hotel. When I learned this from the hotel shuttle driver, I'd been waiting over 45 minutes. So by the time I got to my car to leave, the automated gate told me I owed an additional $7 because I was checking out over 45 minutes later than I had originally scheduled and paid for. Fortunately the parking attendant was able to let me out without having to pay the additional charge. Confused? Yeah I was too. Now that I know the system, it should go more smoothly next time. Forewarned us forearmed.

    Made an online reservation through Airport Parking Inc. Arrived at the gate to enter and was told…read moreby attendant that the lot was full and that if need to drive across the street to park at the Crown Plaza. There the shuttle was leaving 15 minutes later than was posted on Herndon Park and Fly's website. In short, this place is a better deal than airport parking but is not worth the headache.
