I don't think it's as simple as that.

For one thing, I'm not sure how stable the museum list is. In other words, are the museums exactly the same from year to year? (And it doesn't like you're have plans yet to be in Philly on the first weekend of some month. Remember, it's only weekend a month that Museums On Us works.)

Second, in the case of some museums, much (sometimes all) of the museum is special time-limited exhibits. One exhibit may be much better than the next one. But in the case of exhibits, you need very timely recommendations (relative to your trip), not general recommendations for future possible trips.

I compare the Musuems On Us list to my AAA tour books (I belong to AAA), but if you don't belong to AAA you could use TripAdvisor or some other source of recommendations. But I combine that with visiting the musuems' websites and seeing what exhibitions they have, and it's often an exhibition that looks interesting which guides my final decision.

There is no such airport code as DIA. Do you mean DEN, DTW, or someplace else?

Please spell out city names if you don't know the correct airport codes. Thanks.
