Baltimore Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport likes to keep things simple: departures leave from the upper level, while arrivals fly into the lower level. Located only 10 miles from downtown Baltimore and 30 miles from Washington D.C., it is a good alternative to Dulles International and Washington National. BWI is one of the busiest (and most conveniently situated) airports on the East Coast. Fun fact: This airport was featured in "The Silence of the Lambs," though we don't expect you'll find Jodie Foster here.
Hard to spell but easy to find, Obrycki's is another airport outpost with roots in the surrounding city. The original location in Baltimore neighborhood Fells Point was renowned for all things crab, and this location is said to be just as good. While you're here, try the crab cakes, the crab melt, the crab meat cocktail or, if you're feeling adventurous, all of the above. You know what they say: When in Rome...
Baltimore Washington International Airport (BWI) is one of the only airports in the country to have a historic home right on the premises, so you might want to drive your Baltimore rental car back here a little early before your return flight. Home to the Anne Arundel County Historical Society and listed on the National Registry of Historic Places, this 19th century Greek revival home is a regular 1800s treat.
