This airport is very clean, always has great hallway/ terminal views, plenty of restaurants, coffee shops, and novelty items for sale, and more. Although this location is 1+ hours from where I reside, I never mind going the extra distance for a great experience for less moohlah.

It's actually been a long time since I have flown through (or to) Washington DC and gone to any…read moreairport in the DC area. I recently had a layover at DCA when traveling from Phoenix to Toronto on American Airlines. I enjoyed the layover and found the airport, its staff, and the airline lounges all to be very convenient and helpful. I learned on this visit though that locals and frequent flyers typically call it "National" or "DCA" while out-of-town visitors call it "Reagan." I used all three interchangeably so I'm not sure what that means for me. The clubs and lounges in DCA Airport are much better than usual and there are more of them than usual. I have two travel premium credit cards: the AAdvantage Executive Mastercard offering complimentary Admirals Club access (including the locations near gates C24 and in concourses B and E) and the American Express Platinum card offering other lounge access (including the Centurion Lounge near the B gates and the Delta Sky Club near B15 if I was flying Delta). Other lounges include the United Club near B11 and the Capital One Landing in the main connector area. The Admirals Club near the E gates was incredible and a newly reimagined lounge. My AMEX Platinum also provides travel credits along with complimentary CLEAR and Global Entry membership. There is also the USO Center in Terminal 1. The DCA airport's website (https://www.flyreagan.com) shows ways to enhance your trip or even how to make the most of your summer with a summer travel guide. There are 87 shops and restaurants in the airport with new ones always being added. If you're going to be parking at DCA often, sign up for their PassPark Rewards program (https://parking.flyreagan.com/passpark-rewards). Airport amenities in addition to airport lounges include charging stations, free WiFI, a concierge, baggage carts, and interfaith chapel, kids play space, nursing rooms, pet relief areas, and more. It really does feel that the airport staff put a lot of intentional effort into making sure everyone feels welcome and that there's something at the airport for everyone. I certainly won't mind a layover at DCA in the future!

I can't believe I have not reviewed Reagan National Airport yet…read more Reagan is a national airport only and it employs friendly, local staff. It is located in Arlington, VA and this is as close to Washington, DC proper as you're gonna get with an airport. This airport has grown and expanded over the years and was once a very small, one terminal airport, but that was before the Reagan years aka his name was added to it. The airport is very easy to navigate, due to its smaller size, and they are still upgrading - I mean does it ever really end lol. You can easily access the airport by car, uber/taxi and or metro, which is a huge plus for both local peeps and out-of-towners. All the necessities are here from travel shops to souvenirs to food & drink. Restrooms are modern with all automatic amenities and they are kept very clean. Welcome to DC and we hope you enjoy your stay in our Nation's lovely Capital because we're happy you're here. Cheers!

This terminal was very small, cramped and chaotic…read more I walked here from the metro and it's a bit of a hike from the metro stop from Terminal 2 to Terminal 1 - probably a 10 minute walk. I'm pretty fast and fit and I was sweating! Not a lot in the way of food - I ate at the only "real" restaurant here, Reservoir, which was French and expensive but, pretty good. It's a nice place to hang out with charging ports while you wait bc, once you leave, there isn't really anywhere to relax or sit by the gate. Small shopping tunnel as you walk to the "gate" area with a large bar and it was pandemonium. Loud, crowded and bumping into people, not enough seating for the amount of people, etc. Something I havent' seen at an airport before... that's for sure. Not comfortable but it's a well-oiled machine cranking out the boarding and flights. The spherical shape the Southwest flights leave from at gates A1-A8 or so was extremely cramped, loud, and chaotic as about 3 flights were boarding and lining up back to back - the lines overlapped with other gates and boarding and the agents were calling over one another with directions. Our gate agent was a pro - fast and efficient boarding and we were ready to hit the road. Very friendly and easy boarding experience. I haven't flown Southwest in years and it was a nice plane and great boarding process. Southwest did a good job here - but, boy, was it an interesting experience with all

5 isn't enough stars for the jerk chicken rueben sandwich that I had at National Airport!…read more An employee named Mr. Kemar recommended that I get the sandwich heated up and then he made it himself. I'm 55 years old and I travel 5-10 weekends in most years. I can say without a doubt that Kemar made me the best sandwich that I've ever had in an airport. The taste, texture and quantity of ingredients was tremendous. I even went back for another one 5 days later when I was flying through this airport again. WOW! Expectations were totally shattered.

My only wish is for more seating options. There aren't enough seats to accommodate the customers awaiting their flight. It forces random folks lingering around, or hanging out at the restaurants longer than intended to maintain seating. Otherwise, this place is great!

Gorgeous…read morehigh ceilings with clean and stylish amenities, plenty of premium clubs if you are a AA Admiral, AMEX Platinum, or United Club member. Lots of food vendor options. And overall, an easy travel experience outside of when there a plane delays. Since we are usually flying into DC as opposed to out, it's easy to access all the major points so long as traffic isn't bad or during rush hour. From the terminals, you can see the U.S. Capital and the Washington Monument looking firm and erect, erect and firm. And if you want to access DC via the metro, there is a station right there to take you into town within 10 to 15 minutes. Arlington is right there as is the Pentagon. One of the better airports in the country.

Easy access to parking and close proximity to everything DC, NoVA, and Maryland has to offer…read more Terminal to arrival/baggage claim was a very short distance away. Definitely easier and better in that sense compared to flying in and out of IAD. Garage parking is free for the first hour. Something we take for granted as many other airports don't offer such a thing. Too bad just about all eatery places were closed when landing at 9pm or so. I wouldn't mind flying in and out of DCA in the future.

Metro Wash sounds like a Laundromat. I assure you, it's not…read more This is the company that runs National Airport, and in my opinion they really need to invest in some extra employees, so that when you show up, you know what to do, and there is somebody free to help you - because right now it's a bit of a wasteland in here in terms of people helping out. At least it's not an absolute Zoo like a lot of airports.
