What is the best way to get to Dulles Airport from Alexandria, Virgina?|167279

Is there anything better than a taxi? If not, what taxi company should I use and how much should I expect to pay?

1) Take the Blue Line towards Largo and change at Rosslyn to the Orange Line (you_ll have to change platforms). Take the Orange Line towards Vienna and get off at West Falls Church. There is a Washington Flyer Shuttle there that goes to Dulles, I think every 40 minutes; just follow the signs.

2) Take the Blue Line towards Largo and catch the 5A Metrobus to Dulles. If you do this, get a transfer at the station where you *catch* the Metro to save 85 cents on your bus fare.

If you_re close to a metro stop, just take the metro to West Falls Church and take the bus shuttle from the metro stop. The website is here.

i got a taxi from dc to woodbridge and the lovely cab driver charged me$60 and would not take a tip

You could always use Dulles Flyer taxi...they are a step up.

If not, Use Washington Flyer taxi...looks like it would be around $40-$50 or so.

From the airport, they would probably take the Dulles Toll Road to 495.

if you_d like to ride in a style you can take limo for $100

Here_s another option, Metro runs a bus, but if you want easy, go with the taxi. More expensive, though.

It_s easiest to just drive yourself and park your car while you_re away - then it_s there as soon as you arrive back home. But, try to find a taxi company that offers a flat fee as opposed to a metered ride, as that would be pretty pricey. Sometimes limos are actually cheaper than a cab ride.
