I have a budget of spending $700 total of the two of us hotel plus flight/train to go somewhere in January. Friend was in DC in August for 8 days with her family and she went in May 2018 for 6 days. Friend loves watching planes/ going to airports. Friend has also been to nyc before. I’ve never been to dc or nyc.

Option 1- nice DC hotel for 3 nights + 10 hour Amtrak train ride. ($417 for 3 nights and $172 round trip train) about $590.

Option 2 - fly to Baltimore ( $464 for both round trip) and $149 total to stay at a 3 star hotel for two nights. Take the marc metro train into dc ($20 per person round trip) Around $650 total. The bonus is She gets to fly on a plane and we get there quicker. (An hour flight gets in at 9am)

Option 3- Atlanta. Super busy airport ($389 round trip for both) and $200 to stay at the airport hotel for two nights with runway view room. Flight gets in around 1pm. They have a delta plane museum too. Probably around $590 total. Neither of us have ever been here

Option 4- nyc. Amtrak ($264 for both round trip) 14 hours to penn station gets in around 5pm. Super nice hotel ($282 for 3 nights) $550 total. Get to walk around nyc.

Option 5- JFK

flight for both is $402 total (an hour flight) and TWA airport terminal hotel (they have ice skating on the tarmac and heated year round infinity pool) one night is $225. Around $630. Flight gets in early. Would only be staying one night.

Option 6 - Miami

Busy airport. $380 for both of us flight wise. $302 for one night at airport hotel. (Hotels all over Florida are expensive in January so it’s unlikely that we would stay multiple nights).

Option 7- Charleston

$480 for both round trip flight and $162 for two nights. Around $650. Gets to go on a plane and see Charleston although I don't know what there is to do.

Option 8- vegas. $572 round trip for both. Gets in at 11am, have all day to walk strip go back to airport, would leave next day at 9am flight, sleep in airport. Hotels too expensive.
