The run

Ninety minutes, two bridges, and a curb at the end of it.

Plenty of Queen Anne's County travel goes to Reagan National rather than BWI, and it is almost always the same two reasons: a Washington meeting where DCA is simply closer to the office, or a short-haul flight that only leaves from there.

It is the longer run of the two, around ninety minutes from Chester or Stevensville depending on the bridge and the Beltway. That is precisely why it is worth booking rather than driving: you would be paying to park a car at National for the length of the trip, and the return leg lands you at the curb at the end of a long day instead of at a shuttle stop.

What the fare covers

Tolls are billed at cost. Gratuity is customary at 15 to 20 percent and is never added to your fare automatically.

Coming home

Book the return at the same time.

The leg people forget is the one that matters more. Landing at DCA at ten at night, ninety minutes from home with nobody to call, is how a good trip ends badly. Book both directions at once and your name is on a sign at arrivals.

Questions

The ones we get asked most

Is the fare really fixed?

Yes. $125 is set before you book. Tolls are passed through at cost and gratuity is never added automatically.

Is there a night surcharge?

Pickups between 11:00 PM and 7:00 AM carry a $25 surcharge. Everything else is the flat rate.

What happens on the way home?

Your flight is tracked, so the pickup moves with a delay, and you land at the curb at the end of a long day instead of at a shuttle stop.

How many people fit?

Up to 4 in the Cadillac XT5 or the Ford Bronco. A group goes in the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van, quoted with your headcount.

How far ahead should I book?

Twenty four hours is usually plenty for an airport run, and same day requests are welcome when we can fit them in.

Which towns do you pick up from?

Chester, Stevensville, Grasonville and Queenstown.

Why book a car instead of driving and parking?

You would be paying to park a car at National for the length of the trip, and the return leg lands you at the curb at the end of a long day instead of at a shuttle stop, with the bridge and the Beltway somebody else's problem both ways.

What does the fare cover?

Door to terminal, flight tracked, tolls at cost, no surge pricing and no meter. Gratuity is never added automatically.

Can I book the return pickup at the same time?

Yes. Book both legs at once and the return moves with your flight.

Do you run to BWI as well?

Yes. Kent Island to BWI is a flat $95 and has its own page, and Dulles is $165.

Can the Sprinter van do an airport run?

Yes. Groups go in the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van, quoted with your headcount, with the same flight tracking and the same fixed rate.

Is it the same price from Queenstown?

The flat rate covers Chester, Stevensville, Grasonville and Queenstown. Anywhere else on the island, ask and the rate is fixed before you confirm.

Do you do early morning flights?

Yes. Pickups between 11:00 PM and 7:00 AM carry a $25 surcharge and are otherwise the same flat rate, with the same flight tracking.

How do I book?

Call 443-960-8059 or use the booking page: four questions, and the run is confirmed at a fixed rate before you commit to anything.
