Early Entry on weekdays will now begin at 8am instead of 9am, as originally scheduled and planned. DCA's weekday operating hours remain the same, 10am to 6pm, for the next few months. This truly is the summer that never ends! Even weekdays are busier than anyone can ever remember. The 50th buzz has just continued right through September and into October, and they've finally had to increase operating hours during what would normally be slow, off-season weekdays.

We are having a family reunion in 8 days at DLR. Some of my family is coming from the east coast. For them 10 AM PST == 1 PM EST! Talk about a late start! I hope they can handle being at DL until near midnight!
