Alexandria, VA— Next time you travel through Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport or meet someone there, take a look at the results of several unique historic preservation projects now on view for travelers and members of the public.
The projects include the site of a former Colonial plantation called Abingdon, which was the home of George Washington's granddaughter and other prominent families in the Washington and Virginia area.
Thanksgiving week, and the holiday season which follows, are expected to bring more travelers to Ronald Reagan Washington National and Washington Dulles International Airports. The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority is offering travel advice to area residents.
"The holiday season brings more crowded conditions to our airports so it may be wise to allow extra time for parking and check-in to ensure a smooth trip," says Airports Authority President/CEO James A. Wilding.
During the holidays, the Airports Authority offers these travel tips:
The Seminar will be held from Noon until 5:00 p.m. at the Sheraton Crystal City Hotel located at 1800 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA.
"With this addition, we have added more than 3,400 new parking spaces at Dulles this year," said Airports Authority President/CEO James A. Wilding. "We recognize the need for parking at Dulles as new air service is added and passenger numbers increase."
Alexandria, VA—The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority has added two new air cargo publications to its official web site, www.metwashairports.com. The 1998 Washington Dulles World Cargo Center Directory and Users Guide; and Gateway, the Airports Authority's official cargo newsletter.
