I am at a loss, and while my mind was spinning the possibilities, it occured to me that the experts here might have a suggestion.

Here is the situation:
In July I have a mini trip scheduled within a larger trip (I fly to DC, then zip over to the Boston, and then fly back to DC for my flight home.) The flight to Boston is on a different airline than the flight from DC back home.

The problem that woke me from a sound sleep is that I have ONE HOUR from the time I arrive in DC until the time of my flight home. That would give me one hour to gather my luggage from baggage from one airline, recheck it on the other airline, get through security, and board my plane. Not possible.

So, now I am trying to figure out a solution for my luggage. It isn't an option to pack carry-on. I will be on a business trip for 14 days. One suitcase is going to be tough!

I have looked at baggage shipping places, but man are they expensive (does anyone have a code for a baggage shipping place?)

Are there any options I hadn't considered?

Thanks for any thoughts!!!
