    Don't let the beautiful main terminal deceive you: the airside concourses are a piece of shit.

    Take silver line express shuttle in upper pick up ramp, not the lower ramp for hotel/rental shuttle.

    #GlobalEntry but flying non #TSAPre airline @Dulles? Go to the Pre gate anyway, they send you (efficiently) through wheelchair gate #ProTip

    Beware gates 6A. There are six of them A-D but only two entrances labeled 1 and 2. And no where that lists the destination!

    Check your gate ahead of time to see the food options. Wait times range from the worst I've seen to almost nothing, and not always predictably. Arrival times a joke, add 1 hour

    Opt Out! The backsetter X-rays in use here have been banned in Europe and elsewhere for many health risks including risk of cancer.

    If you are going to C20 or higher, it may be faster to take the people mover to terminal D and walk over to Terminal C .

    Terrible experience at Dulles on two separate occasions...1.5hr queue for passport control on arrival and then 1.5 hr queue for security on departure. Not a developed world experience by far...

    be warned that moe's is NOT moe's southwestern grill and their delicious burritos. I've walked the entire length of the D terminal for nothing but disappointment.

    If you are traveling to Dulles from the DMV, don't forget to use the airport lanes to avoid paying tolls..

    Avoid laying over here if its your first stop in the US. Immigration takes forever, and logistics are horrible. You’ll probably miss your connection...

    If you think this place is a pain, you should have been here before the train to the terminals was built and you still had to ride in a moving room from out of Star Wars.
