(DCA) on American, and Chicago (ORD) on United. There are also seasonal or less frequent direct flights to leisure destinations like Orlando and Fort Lauderdale.

To find affordable flights from Charlottesville, book hub flights (to Charlotte, Atlanta, etc.) 3-6 weeks in advance. Use flight comparison tools. Flying on weekdays (Tuesday-Thursday) is typically cheaper.
