need help with flight!?
im taking a trip to dc in a couple of weeks and am not sure which flight would be better. its $150 to BWI but i would need to take a shuttle to dc then there is a $190 flight to IDA. the major issue is that i'll have my 13 month old daughter with me and dont know how she will act taking a flight and then a shuttle if i go BWI and the IDA flight gets in real late. but would it be cheaper to shuttle to dc from baltimore and arrive at an earlier time or drop an extra 40 to arrive in dc but at a much later time

I have been living in the Baltimore / DC cooridor for about a year now and I am a professional in the aviation industry. First of all I am sure you mean Dulles when you type IDA but just to clarify Washington Dulles airport is IAD not IDA. If you are looking up flights with the airport identifier IDA then you are going to be shocked when you land in Idaho Falls. I live much closer to BWI so it is a no brainer for me but I know a few people that went to school in DC and they would always go for whats cheapest. Keep in mind that the only airport inside DC is Ronald Regan (DCA). Dulles Airport is not in DC it is in a town called Herndon, VA. There is no metro connection to Dulles from DC (the red line extension is on hold) so you will have to take a shuttle at either airport. It is all up to you but if the Dulles flight comes in later, is more expensive, and you will still need to take a shuttle I think BWI is the way to go.
