Security at IAD has not been so bad for me. I have TWICE shown up with contraband in my carry-on. They were cool and professional. On my way in minutes.

Lounge access sucks though. Priority Pass lounges are pretty lame.

+1 on the long walks. Me bride's handicap tag isn't a decoration. The long hikes are pretty demanding.
Well, not everyone traveling from NoVa is 70 toting 80. I would think that International business travelers will walk directly from their hotel in Crystal City/Rosslyn to the metro and be on their way.
