Especially with access to a Metro stop right at the airport; IAD's promised Metro line is still a ways off. Saves the bloke a drive into the suburbs (which can be hectic almost anytime and certainly at the rush hours) and maybe even makes departure day easier in that he won't have to take time off from work to return you to IAD.

Oh, and the extra 20 TPs roundtrip. . .
