Transportation
Nearby Airports: I strongly encourage you to fly to Reagan National Airport. It’s very close to the hotel. Other options are Dulles International Airport and Baltimore-Washington International Airport.
Nearby Bus and Train Station: Union Station, Washington, D.C.
Rental Car: You really don’t need to rent a car during the reunion. Parking isn’t that great in the city, especially at the attractions we’ll visit. We’ll be using bus shuttles and convenient public transportation, so it will be much less than renting a car. Another option is using a shared ride mobile phone application like Lyft or Uber, given the daily parking fee at the hotel.
