Reply to comment by an-itch-in-her-ditch in Arlington moves forward with plan to build pedestrian bridge from Crystal City to Reagan National by crabcakes110

I said 'and', meaning that I'm talking about two different groups.

The use of “and” means “the union of”. Using “or” would have conveyed your meaning. Or you could have used a comma.

Except “people who” in both implies it’s two different if they said “people who work at the airport and stay at hotels” you’d be correct however it’s a union of two different groups (people who work at the airport) and (people who stay at hotels). A comma has no place here and using one would be grammatically incorrect.
