Please note that in addition to the obscenely expensive cab fares  
mentioned
in the ALS 22 information sheet, there are cheap, convenient public
transportation options from all three Washington metro area airports:

1. From BWI Airport: Metro bus B30 to Greenbelt, then Metro rail Green  
Line
to College Park. From there one can take the free Shuttle UM to the  
Stamp
Union. Cost: $4.45

2. From DCA (Reagan National Airport): Metro rail Yellow Line to  
L'Enfant
Plaza (or any other stop thereafter) then Green Line to College Park.  
Then
free Shuttle UM to Stamp Union. Cost: $2.35

3. From IAD (Dulles Airport): Metro bus 5A to L'Enfant Plaza, then Green
Line to College Park, then free shuttle to Stamp Union. Cost: $4.95.


For those arriving by train to Union Station, you may take the Red  
Line from
Union Station to Fort Totten, then the Green Line to College Park, then
shuttle. Cost: $1.85.

The costs above are approximate, as Metro has peak and off-peak fares.  
Also,
senior citizens may receive a discount.

Detailed planning tools are available at http://metroopensdoors.com

Safe travels,
Uri
