Other options would be to fly into one of the Washington DC airports (either IAD or DCA).
US and UA each have first class service to those airports. When searching, type in "WAS" as the airport code to bring up all options. However, for a 1.5 hour flight, its probably not worth it.
Also, "BAL" is not the correct code, you gotto use BWI for Baltimore.
Good luck!
