Yes planes are still loud and the the noise from DCA is actually getting louder. They have more and more loud planes starting at 6AM now despite DCA’s “procedures” that mentions noise restrictions before 7AM. Most of these planes cut right through north Arlington.

What, no flights to Chattanooga? Lol. It’s difficult to get excited over this list.

Not true. Alaska has a nonstop to Seattle WA from DCA.

Hmmm…my problem is I fly during the holidays. Anyway, Frontier used to be the most awesomest ever — I remember getting free breakfast burritos and huge warm cookies during the flight. Those were the days. Now they charge for food and baggage and “extra leg room” (aka exit row) like everyone else.

I fly the DCA / Denver route on Frontier a lot, and while sometimes they are high, they’re not always. Plus their customer service is way better than other airlines, and they’re almost always on time.

For those with families and friends in Florida, and there are many of us in NVA/MD/DC, Eastern–>USAir–>USAirways has been a godsend, as they have always had the most nonstop flights and served the most cities. The addition of Tallahassee now makes it possible for us to skip the excruciating drive down I-95 for my wife’s high school reunions.

Perhaps I guess this explains why my nonstop flight on Delta to New Orleans in late March was just cancelled last week and why I was rebooked on a flight through Atlanta. I gained more information off of ArlNow than the customer service rep at Delta could give me!!

I don’t see what comparing Long Island traffic to DC traffic has to do with comparing JFK traffic to Islip traffic. Maybe for your former home the trip to either airport was the same, but for many people living elsewhere on the Island Islip is a better choice.
