A vehicle actually is not only a liability but also a determinant due to parking fees and good luck trying to find a parking spot. Washington DC is laid out intentionally so that it is very walkable. And if you actually don't use the Metro you miss out on a tremendous amount this city has to offer. Our nation's capital, what more need I say. Everyone should make the trip here at least once in their lifetime. And taking the metro there's no easier, seamless or quicker way to navigate the city.

It only has one exit so can bit a bit crowded coming in and out of the station,, especially if two trains arrived at once. The station exits next to GWU Hospital, and is a block down from Washington Circle and a Whole Foods amongst other things. The Kennedy Center shuttle also stops in front of the station. There are usually a few sidewalk vendors out in front of the station selling T-shirts, sometimes household products, artworks, and other items. There is a Starbucks located in the GWU Hospital lobby (limited to hospital employees late/overnight), and a 7-Eleven a block over through a little plaza behind the station entrance. It does the job. Can't complain.

This is one of the few underground stations, so it is naturally dark and not well lit. I've been through this station a few times for years going to Georgetown. The signage makes it very easy to navigate through this station. This is a transfer station between the silver/orange/blue lines. Google maps wanted me to pass Rosslyn...get off at Foggy Bottom, then travel down on the blue line through Rosslyn...nonsense. For a Saturday, the station was fairly busy. There is a very long escalator going up and down...even though I prefer the stairs option.

Once I conquered the streets I was happy to see that this was the Green Line. No need to transfer to me, just find a seat and settle in for the ride. The station itself is like many of the other underground stations on the system. The concrete tube with the orange hexagon tile. Single platform serving both directions. Older screens to let you know of the next train coming. Easy enough to use station.

The area next to the Metro used to be a hang out for the unhoused and kind of still is, but the presence has been reduced by the current National Guard occupation and the curfew for minors. I do like that this Metro is across the street from the southwest farmers market.

If you are not familiar with the station, then you have to figure our which exit to take so you don't end up 1/4 mile from your desired destination. This station is super simple in that it only has one exit. As the name implies, it drops you off in Federal Center which consists of tons of federal agency buildings. Although this Metro stop may be used by commuters the most, it is also convenient to lovely attractions like the US Capital building, US Botanical Gardens and Bartholdi Park. I've only used this station during the day so I'm not sure what its like at night.

The flight attendants were especially helpful and professional making this a great experience.

Plus the delay is attributed to the recent air disaster in MIA. They have flight restrictions. I recommend American and will continue to use them in the mix. But I'm not loyal to one line any longer.

I used to be very loyal to America West Airlines out of Phoenix. Then, it was US Airways flying…read moreacross the country, again from Phoenix, and I was getting upgraded regularly. Now, it's American Airlines that I frequent, along with past America West Airlines and US Airways patrons. I find that, as with any other airline, customer service is often better than not, but there are always a few hiccups. With American Airlines, you can get someone on the phone, on a chat, on social media, or in person to assist, and with some respect on our part, we can often get what we need. I rarely have luggage issues, though there was one time when my bag was damaged, and American Airlines gave me a replacement while they repaired my original. I regularly fly in and out of the American Airlines gates at Phoenix Sky Harbor and frequent hubs like Dallas-Fort Worth, Chicago O'Hare, Philadelphia, and Charlotte. I even make it out to Washington DC on occasion, having either visited the area or have a layover through as I did today. Often, my travels require a connecting flight, and my flights are, more often than not, on time and without delays in departure or arrival. With status, an American Airlines credit card, and membership in CLEAR and Global Entry, I do not pay for luggage, receive priority luggage handling, board early, speed through security, sometimes receive upgrades, and access lounges. Traveling has become more of a hobby and a habit, and with American Airlines as my go-to airline, I accumulate miles quickly while also earning status and Loyalty Point rewards. I have two travel premium credit cards: the AAdvantage Executive Mastercard, which offers complimentary Admirals Club access, and the American Express Platinum card, which offers lounge access, travel credits, and complimentary CLEAR and Global Entry memberships. With these two credit cards, I can access the Admiral's Club at Orlando International Airport or The Club at MCO. I may even be able to visit the Plaza Premium Lounge, though I've never checked. Also, through T-Mobile, I received free Wi-Fi on American Airlines flights (though now it is free for anyone with an AAdvantage account). Through my American Airlines AAdvantage status, I get upgrades or free paid snacks and drinks on flights, along with other benefits. To retain status each year, you need to earn Loyalty Point through flying, credit card spending, and promotions. You can also earn Loyalty point rewards after hitting 175,000 points, 250,000 points, and so on. While it is difficult to receive upgrades due to the large number of people at the Executive Platinum status tier, the benefits I do receive are worthwhile. I have also experienced technical issues on flights, but not enough to cause me to abandon American Airlines, especially when every other airline faces the same challenges. All in all, American Airlines is a great company and does as well, if not better than, any of the other major airlines.
