BWI may turn out to be the most cost effective airport for you. www.kayak.com is an excellent tool for trip planning. I picked a week in June and found attractive round trip rates of as low as $144 on Northwest Airlines from DTW to BWI and back. BWI may not be the closest airport; but, it may turn out to be the cheapest from the Detroit area. Consider staying in Virginia, near a Metro station. The hotels will probably be less expensive and the Metro is very convenient. Go to this website to determine where you would prefer to stay: http://www.wmata.com/ You of course have the option of renting a car or taking public transportation. This decision will hinge on how much flexibility you want and how well you ambulate. Have a wonderful trip. Washington DC is an outstanding vacation destination.
