Flights to Dulles Intl: the best tips from KAYAK users' own experiences
Insights shared by verified travelers who flew to Dulles Intl
Always watch the flight connection window. If it is less than an hour and changing concourses (like Dulles), you're asking for trouble (have your travel insurance contact number ready). Of course, that doesn't apply to American or United Airlines as they are typically late. If you get an Embraer 175 or larger aircraft, you will have a great flight. If longer than two hour flight, hope you don't get a Boeing 757 aircraft - the most ungodly uncomfortable sardine can with wings, ever made. Have a chiropractor or massage specialist waiting at your destination. If you have a 757 for Trans-Atlantic or Trans-Pacific flights, choose business class seats.
