Flights to Baltimore
 

Baltimore is an important seaport with a rich and colorful history that dates back to the birth of our country, especially during the American Revolution when it was the site of vital shipbuilding operations. The U.S. Navy’s first ship, the USS Constellation, was launched from its harbor in 1797, and it remains anchored today at Inner Harbor as part of the Historic Ships in Baltimore attraction. Our national anthem originated in Baltimore when Francis Scott Key was inspired to write the “The Star Spangled Banner” when the British tried to take Fort McHenry, now a national monument and history shrine, during the War of 1812.

Fell’s Point is a charming waterfront neighborhood of 18th and 19th century homes and storefronts named for the English founder of the shipbuilding business that produced the Baltimore Schooner. This is a good place to find restaurants serving exceptional Chesapeake Bay cuisine. Speaking of cuisine, in Baltimore the Chesapeake blue crab is king. No visit is complete without feasting on a pile of steamed crabs or sweet, meaty Maryland style crab cakes. You can wash it down with a local beer by Union Craft Brewing, Heavy Seas or Flying Dog Brewery.

There is no excuse for skipping your workout when traveling through Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI). Named the No. 1 airport in the U.S. by Thrillist.com, it boasts a 12.5-mile trail that winds through green spaces and forested areas around the facility. There are also bike rentals, a fitness center with showers, a meditation room and a children’s playground.

The bi-level airport has five concourses serving most major national airlines, including Delta Air Lines, as well as international and regional airlines. 

There are a wide variety of dining options, ranging from fast-food favorites like Chipotle and Chick-fil-A to full-service restaurants such as Silver Diner and R&R Seafood Bar. Shops run the gamut from duty free stores and Hudson News to M.A.C. Cosmetics and Victoria’s Secret.
