Washington, DC

Washington DC epitomizes the theory that “there is something for everybody.”  Each day there is an insane amount of things to do.  I would imagine that your ‘been there done that’ list includes:

__ Smithsonian Museums

__ National Mall

__ Washington, Lincoln, WWII Memorials

__ Stand outside metal fence of the White House

The crew at Way to Go Air Charter has a laundry list of ideas that could enhance your Washington, DC experience. What this list doesn’t include: sitting in hours of traffic, and/or navigating the complicated web known as Washington Dulles or Reagan Airport.

Here’s one idea to get your brainstorming started…

A party of four took off from Ocean City, NJ Airport at 10:00 am and flew to College Park Airport, Washington, DC, (Our nations oldest Airport.)

After arrival, the group walked two blocks to the Metro and took a 20-minute ride into center city Washington.  After arriving in the city, they walked three blocks to the Ford Theater for the noon matinee of Charles Dickens, "A Christmas Carol.”  Just sitting in this historic theater was worth the price of admission.  Let alone watching a play on a stage that played such a huge part in our nation’s history.

Following the play they walked two blocks to the Caucus Room where they ate a late lunch at 2:30 pm.  After adding their own rave reviews for the restaurant they started their walk back to the Metro.

Their route back to the Metro took them through the Outdoor Christmas Market where they were able to finish up some last second Christmas shopping and not have to worry about squeezing it in their luggage.  *Side note: the second most confiscated item at airport security is snow globes!

By 4:30 pm they were onboard the Cherokee Six and ready for takeoff.  With the help of a tailwind, they arrived back at Ocean City, NJ thirty-five minutes later.

As you can see, Way to Go Air Charter offers you a personalized and convenient way to travel.  If you can dream it, we can get you there. 

Block Island, RI

You've heard of Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket, but a lesser known island is lingering just south of those islands - Block Island, RI.  When you get there you will feel like you've been transported to a New England island resort right out of a storybook.

Planes, Trains and Automobiles:
If you were to travel to Block Island by vehicle you would embark on a trip that John Candy and Steve Martin would be envious of.  You could drive to Montauk, NY (Long Island), Narragansett, RI or New London, CT then put yourself and your car on a ferry and (slowly) continue your voyage across the Long Island Sound or Block Island Sound.

...or...


Fly directly into Block Island State Airport.  From most points of departures Way to Go Air Charter can get you to this New England gem in less than 2 hours.  Instead of guessing what ungodly hour you should leave your house to avoid New York City traffic (correct answer: there is no good time to avoid NYC traffic) you can enjoy the view from a pristine Cherokee 6 aircraft high above the New York skyline (pointing and laughing at the traffic is allowed while on board.)

When in Rome:
When you and your party arrive on the island your first choice is going to be "do we want to take bikes downtown or catch a cab?"  Either option gets you where you need to be because you are only a few miles from the beaches, shops and restaurants of downtown Block Island.  We definitely recommend jumping on bikes and exploring the coastline.

New England is known for its Bed & Breakfasts, unique architecture and lighthouses - Block Island is no different.  BI has two not-to-be-missed lighthouses on either end of the island.  The Block Island Southeast Light and the Block Island North Lighthouse.  While you're visiting the North Lighthouse swing through the Atlantic Flyway on the Northwest Tip of the Island.  This is an undeveloped part of the island that serves as home to many unique birds and wildlife.

For a truly unique experience, fly to BI for the Block Island Race Week.  Usually held in June, teams from around the world compete in these yacht races.

Family memories are made here.  Seeing your children squirm the first time they see a lobster (that was most likely caught that morning) is definitely a Kodak moment.  However, once they try seafood on this island they are not going to want to have it anywhere else.  It doesn't get served fresher than it does here.

Williamsburg, VA

There are few places in the country that offer as much as Williamsburg, VA does.  The only problem is...how do you get there?

Option #1: Book ticket for $300+.  Drive to nearest commercial airport.  Fly into Newport News/Williamsburg International Airport.  Rent a car and drive 20 miles to Williamsburg.  OR fly into Richmond or Norfolk and drive 55 miles to Williamsburg.  

Option #2: Book flight with Way to Go Air Charter for $550.  Avoid commercial airport hassle.  Fly directly into Williamsburg/Jamestown Airport.  Be there in a few hours.  You end up saving money because you don't have to rent a car.  

Why you should go:

The options just don't end.  

History buff?  You are in the heart of America's Historic Triangle.  John Smith and company developed the first permanent English Colony in the New World nearby in Jamestowne.  Take a tour of Yorktown where blood was shed during the Revolutionary War's most decisive battle.  Not to mention, Williamsburg is one of the United States only "living history" towns.

Golfer?  This is a great one, because you and your buddies can jump in an airplane, play a round of 18 on a Robert Trent Jones Sr or Arnold Palmer designed golf course and fly home in the same day.  Not to mention you can split the $550 among your buddies.  

Antiques?  Heaven.  You are in heaven.

Prospective College Student?  Here's one you probably haven't thought of.  Williamsburg is within driving distance of seven well known colleges.  Make the most of your college search and visit William & Mary, Christopher Newport University, Old Dominion, Norfolk State, Hampton College, Virginia Commonwealth University and University of Richmond all in a few days.  

The possibilities are endless.
