The Committee for Dulles mission is to support the economic vitality of Washington Dulles International Airport; educate the community; inform businesses and elected officials on the important role the Airport plays in the region’s economy, and support federal, state, and local government policies that protect and encourage growth of the Airport and Airport operations.

Washington Dulles International Airport:

Imagine the Dulles Economic Corridor Without Dulles Airport. Dulles brings big business to Northern Virginia. It brings hundreds of thousands of tourists and other visitors every year. It brings people and products together. And it provides fast, convenient access to world markets.

Today, more than 46.6 million passengers pass through both IAD & DCA annually, and more than 300 businesses operate on their campuses to support airline and related operations. That equates to $23.6 billion of annual economic output, based on a 2017 IHS Markit survey, the equivalent of ranking number 123 on the Fortune 500 if it were a publicly-traded company. Dulles International Airport is Northern Virginia's economic lifeline and the members of the Committee for Dulles have recognized that for half a century. Although we know the airport is clearly here to stay, its full potential is by no means guaranteed. That is, and will continue to be, our commitment.
