How to get there? ✈ We strongly recommend Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD).

Baltimore Washington International Airport (BWI) is not recommended as it is not close to the housing or job and requires you to take a train to Union Station in DC and then another train to Springfield, VA for pickup.

If you arrive in New York City and take a bus to Washington DC, we’d like to ask you not schedule the bus arriving in Washington DC between 11 PM to 9 AM due to staff availability and traffic concerns in the city.
