If you happen to be making the journey out to Dulles International Airport on July 26 or 27, good news—you can save yourself $5 (the bad news, of course, is that you’re still going to Dulles).

In honor of the Silver Line’s one-year anniversary, which is also when the Silver Line Express bus began running, MWAA is offering free rides to and from the Wiehle-Reston East Metrorail Station.

A one-way trip normally costs $5.

They tout the Silver Line Express, which comes with free wi-fi and operates every 15-20 minutes, as a comfortable, easy bus option to get to the airport. More than 270,000 riders have used it in the past year, an increase of 80 percent of the previous service to East Falls Church (a longer, more expensive ride), according to the release.

Meanwhile, Metro is seriously considering cutting the 5A bus.
