WASHINGTON bound passengers from Europe should not get confused. The airport re-naming craze has struck the good citizens of Baltimore who have re-named their important hub, Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport in honour of the first black justice on the US Supreme Court. It is still BWI and has a twice-daily BA service to Heathrow. Washington Dulles (named after a former secretary of state), the main international airport for the District of Columbia, is in fact much the same distance from the downtown area. However if you are flying into Washington on a domestic basis use Reagan (the former film star and sometime President), which at the most, is five miles from any place in the centre of the city and has excellent rail connections.
