Is 1hr30 min connection time enough to make sure my checked bags get transferred onto my international flight?
I'm traveling from Baltimore to Managua, Nicaragua (on American Airlines), with a connection in Miami. I have an hour and a half between my arrival in Miami and my flight to Managua. Will this be enough time for my checked bags to get transferred to my flight to Managua?

It willbe as long s your flight is booked as a connecting flight and you check in at Baltimore all the way through to Managua. If the flights are separate and you have to check in again at Miami, then it will not be enough as you normally have to checkin at least 3 hours before an international flight. I once made a connection to London from Portland via WashingtonDC and my plane from Portland was late and landed 10 minutes before the London flight was due to take off. I had to run (luckily only 2 gates) to the connecting flight, was the last person on board and they literally closed the door as I stepped on board and my bag somehow made it too!

My husband and I travel alot. Quite often, we had less time than an hour and a half.between flights. Many times, we were sitting on the plane and watched as the luggage was being loaded. I don't know how they do it, but the airlines do. Don't get me wrong, many times your luggage winds up somewhere else. We had our share of that too. More often than not, your bags go with you. Have a great trip.

It will be quite hard to manage. If there is a 5, 15 min. delay... you really have to run, and it depends how far is the distance between the two gates. It is a 50-50 chance based on my experience.

I had an international connection that I flew 6-7 times a year for seven years, on the way back home I had 40 minutes between the time I landed and the time to catch my connecting flight, each time I had checked luggage and not one time did my luggage not make it to my connecting flight. 1hr. 30min. should be plenty of time to transfer your luggage. Anyway you look at it, there's plenty of time to either transfer or lose your luggage.

On Thanksgiving night?? To Fort Meyers, FL?? I haven't heard that city before!!! I advise you to check at an airline web page, or in the same BWI Airport, but I think you can barely get a flight to a nearby city like Orlando, Miami or Jacksonville. (I don't know which is nearer from your town) Thank you for reading, hope my comment is useful and HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

Air Tran has non-stop service. Last flight leaves at 7:04pm but has one stop.

how much is a taxi cab from Baltimore airport to the American University in Washington
how much is a taxi cab from Baltimore airport to the American University in Washington?
I'll take a plane that lands in Baltimore airport because it's cheaper than the flights from Washington's airports. How much will the taxi cab cost compared to the ones from the airports from Washington? Or is there any other way to get there sheaper and conveniently? Like a train, sub, bus, etc? and where can I find information about this?

I'm not absolutely positive about this, but the best I can find would indicate that it would cost between $75 and $100.
2 :
LOTS!! Use the train
3 :
(1) Take Metro B-30 bus to Greenbelt Metro Station - $3.00 (2) Take Green line subway to Ft. Totten (3) Transfer to the Red Line subway going to Shady Grove. (4) Exit at Tenleytown - AU station - $3.90 during rush hour and $2.35 all other times. Total cost - $5.35 or $6.90 - may take you 2 hours to get there but you'll save a lot of money this way.

How easy is it to take a train to Baltimore BWI airport
How easy is it to take a train to Baltimore BWI airport?
I have a super early flight on a monday morning out of BWI airport. I will be in Washington DC and might need to take the train to the airport. How close is the BWI trainstation to the gate that Southwest flys out of? Does it drop you off at the terminals or do you have to take a bus from the train station. Basically, how long does it take to get from the BWI station to the Southwest gates?

From the BWI train station, there are shuttle buses that go to the Southwest terminal. I've only done it once but it only took a few minutes to get from the train station to the airport terminal. The shuttles are free and they left within a couple minutes of when I got off the train.
2 :
The Shuttle buses from the BWI Train Station operate every 5-10 minutes after 5 AM until 1 AM. The trip takes about 10 minutes depending on lights and traffic.
