Duke Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 I'm buying tickets to MNF game vs the Vikings from one of our members. Now I'm planing on flying to FedEX Feild from Tampa. This is my frist time ever to FedEx. I figured that BWI should be closer to the stadium and Southwest has the route to only BWI (Dulles route will begin in Oct.). So, should I fly to BWI or Dulles? Thanks for every input. See you guys there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedskinsFanatic Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Land @ Ronald Reagan airport...you're 17 miles or so from FedEx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsair_joe Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Land @ Ronald Reagan airport...you're 17 miles or so from FedEx. but you pay a premium for that, flights into National are always more expensive. I'd say BWI. :2cents: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwebst1 Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 BWI is the way to go.... only 25 miles or so up 95 north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammy Baugh Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 You could land in the Orange or Purple lots if early. There are very few cars there until almost game time. "The Ronald" or BWI is your best bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarpon75 Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 BWI is the way to go.... only 25 miles or so up 95 north.And roundtrip from Tampa for $138.00.Hard to beat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n|n Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 You definitely want to drive North after that game so that is another + for BWI. It is further but you'll sit in less traffic going North. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouvan59 Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 BWI. Take the Potomac River bridges out of the equation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Posted July 26, 2006 Author Share Posted July 26, 2006 Land @ Ronald Reagan airport...you're 17 miles or so from FedEx. That sounds good but as far as I've search for flights, I've yet seen any airline flying directly to DCA. Thanks for your info though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NattyLight Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 BWI <25 miles from the stadium. Definitely they way to roll!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsNatsFan Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 I think parachuting on to the field just before the national anthem is the way to go. More constructively, I'd say BWI also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbruce0 Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 I'd say BWI, what an awesome price by the way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevieInferior Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 BWI you'd have to drive and the BW Pkwy and 95 are unpredictable. Pay a little extra, go to National and metro to the game. The blue line will take you directly to the stadium! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HailRiggoRanger Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 As everyone has said, Reagan National is probably best (Metro all the way to the stadium, no need for a rental car). But, BWI is second best. I would completely rule Dulles out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedskinsFanatic Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 I did alot of homework on this topic including where to stay for the game. I'm flying from Oregon for the opener and with the help of many Extreme skins members they advised me on the right path. Fly into Reagan, it's the closest to the stadium. If you have to pay a little extra depending on the service you are using then just pay it, when you're talking tickets for a plane and to the game, what's a little more in the grand scheme of things? ~ Have a safe trip whichever way you decide to go.

Skinsfan1311 Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 I'll echo the other posters replies...BWI is the way to go....it's only a 45 minute drive to the stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHUBAKAH Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 I personally fly which ever airport is cheaper, and then use Supershuttle to take me to my hotel. Last years trip was like 30 bucks to and from the airport each. Tell them Blondie sent ya, which gave me the inside scoop on them for a shuttle service...

Mark The Homer Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 I'd go to travelocity.com, check on airfares for both airports. Weigh the difference in cost (both in flight cost and rental car cost), then make an informed decision. Yeah, Reagan National is a little closer as the crow flies, but BWI may be easier. There's really only two roads you need to travel on with BWI, and their both highways with no traffic lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
