Summary
You probably had a sense that members of Congress got some special goodies at National airport. But what are they? We asked Gary Leff, the legendary travel blogger who lived in the DMV for years. Gary spilled some beans, but also talked through how us regular folks could get the same VIP treatment, the Dulles renovation, and the secret luxury room hidden inside DCA. Want some more DC news?
