BWI Airport Car Service
Chauffeured transfers between BWI Marshall Airport and Washington DC, Baltimore, Annapolis and the Maryland suburbs, at a fixed price.
Between Baltimore and Washington, the easy way
Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport is in Anne Arundel County, Maryland, about 10 miles south of downtown Baltimore and roughly 30 miles northeast of Washington, DC. It often has the lowest fares in the region, with a large Southwest schedule, and it is the natural choice for travelers headed to Baltimore, Annapolis, Columbia or Fort Meade.
The catch is the distance. A rideshare to DC can be a long and unpredictable trip, and a taxi line after a late arrival is no fun. Your Capital Executive chauffeur is already there when you land, with a price agreed upfront and your route planned around Baltimore-Washington Parkway and I-95 traffic.
BWI has a single terminal with five concourses, A through E, and baggage claim for all of them is on the lower level. That makes finding your chauffeur simple, whether you choose meet & greet inside or a curbside pickup outside.
