READ THE GUIDE & BOOK CHEAP FLIGHTS TO WASHINGTON DC

First timers

In Washington, explore the US Capitol and JeffersonMemorial before dinner in elegant Georgetown, home to the romantic Michel Richard Citronelle restaurant. There’s no better museum in America than the Smithsonian, though the downtown Spy Museum may be even more fun. Cheap flights to Washington have brought this eclectic city closer than ever.

Frequent flyers

There’s a little more to be explored with each flight to Washington. Take a break on the relaxing Eastern Shore, where miles of scenic shoreline make for great sailing and kayaking, before dining at one of the great seafood restaurants. If you have a sweet tooth why not head to Hershey Park? This amusement park and chocolate factory is like a real life Willy Wonka’s.
Shops

Take a cheap flight to Washington and save your cash for the city’s most elegant shopping experience in grand Union Station. Browse the shops to the sound of live jazz at the historical Old Post Office Pavilion and then catch the glass lift to the 315-foot-high viewing gallery. There are crafts, antiques and alfresco dining galore at local favourite, Eastern Market.

Nights

Hipsters dance the night away at Avenue ? a converted 19th-century warehouse in trendy Chinatown. Follow the jet set ? catch flights to Washington to chill out in the ultra-modern lounges at Fur; they boast fireplaces and HDTVs. Spice up your holiday doing the salsa, tango and samba at the popular Habana Village, or just relax over one of their signature mojito cocktails.
