The destinations featured in this issue of #FlyWashington take readers up and down the
East Coast of the United States and across the globe. Stroll the cobblestone streets of
historic Charleston, South Carolina or the white sand beaches of the Cape Verde islands.
Cold weather fans will enjoy a winter trip to Zurich or Berlin – two cities which come alive
this time of year. Think you know New York City and San Francisco? Think again, as we
go off the beaten path in these well-loved, well-explored American cities.
Our cover story features two familiar faces to anyone who tunes into morning television:
Hoda Kotb and Savannah Guthrie of NBC’s The Today Show. Having both lived in the
National Capital Region for many years, they share insider tips to their favorite things
about the area and what they miss about living here.
This issue of #FlyWashington also features easily accessible day trips to St. Michaels,
Maryland and Harpers Ferry, West Virginia; a holiday gift guide; and a calendar of events,
highlighting all that makes the winter season special in the nation’s capital.
We hope you enjoy this issue of #FlyWashington magazine and your journey through our
airports. On behalf of all Airports Authority employees, our airlines and other business
partners, thank you for making Reagan National and Dulles International your gateways
to the National Capital Region. I wish you a happy holiday and a happy new year!
