In DCA flying out to go home after vacation. Am I the only one who finds this airport confusing?! (DISCLAIMER: It could be the result of Bloody Mary’s for breakfast.)

One of easiest airport’s to get through. What’s confusing?

The only confusing part is if you don’t realize that Terminal A has been around for almost 70 years in some fashion, that’s why it’s way the hell out there from the rest.

I'm sure many at 18 wish that 18 was the new 23.

Love DCA. Not confusing at all. My preferred airport to fly in and out of.

With all due respect, I’m not sure the Bloody Marys - or the airport layout - is you problem...

Suggest not criticizing others’ grammar if you don’t know the rules yourself...it’s "my husband and ME,” not “my husband and I.”

Ummm...easiest airport ever. Terminal B - odd numbers on one side, even on the other. What’s confusing about that?

BAH1, again end of vacation plus delayed flight plus Bloody Marys...it took me a minute to realize even was to the right and odd to the left. I can laugh at myself sometimes :)

How does one tell their boss (owner of the company) that you are burnt out? The sheer volume of work is exhausting and I haven’t taken a true vacation as we are a small company so if something urgent comes to my email I feel like I must respond. I was given an additional title and more responsibilities last year as well but only a 3% raise for it.
