Fair Warning

If you're flying into DCA after 12:30 and expect to take a taxi home, expect to wait. From the Life Concierge's personal experience very early this morning, there is nothing more unpleasant than finishing an international jaunt surrounded by screaming kids and yapping weiner dogs than having to wait an hour in the middle of the night for a cab.

Private car services aren't as bad as you'd think, and in most places Super Shuttle runs 24 hours and operates on very short notice.
