Washington, District of Columbia
Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) is the closest commercial airport to downtown Washington, D.C., located just across the Potomac River in Arlington, Virginia. Known for its convenient access to the city via the Metro, it primarily serves domestic flights and is a hub for business travelers and tourists alike. The airport offers stunning views of the national monuments during takeoff and landing, particularly the famous "River Visual" approach that follows the Potomac.
The airport features the historic Terminal A (now Terminal 1) and the modern National Hall in Terminal 2, designed by Cesar Pelli with soaring glass walls and Jeffersonian domes. It provides a gateway to the nation's capital with a focus on efficiency and passenger experience.
