This tends to be the case generally, and perhaps especially so for DC, where you get lots of travelers on corporate- or government-supported budgets. So your treasurer encourages you to look at the relative costs of arriving on Saturday vs. Sunday :-).

(BTW, my research so far seems to show that airline prices skyrocket if I don't include a Saturday in the trip. i.e. they go up by several hundred pounds, more than the extra night's hotel. So I'm planning on arriving late Saturday night since that will work out cheaper if anyone is interested.  I don't know if this price hike without Saturday is just a UK thing or Europe wide.) 


Many thanks,
