The Exhibit Hall in Terminal A of DCA is a great way to spend time before your flight. The Exhibit Hall details the airport’s long history with video presentations and museum-style exhibits. Artifacts from a plantation replaced by the airport and memorabilia from the original airport are all on display here.
Going straight to the National Mall from Reagan National Airport is an extremely easy trip. Reagan National Airport is located on both the Blue and Yellow Lines, while the National Mall can be accessed by a number of stops on the Blue Line such as Metro Center Station, Federal Triangle Station, and Smithsonian Station.
Two of the easiest ways to get between the airports are shuttle buses and public transportation. The shuttle buses are offered by private companies and range widely in price. Public transport will require you to take either a Metrobus or the Silver Line Express Bus and then the Metrorail to connect from Dulles International to Reagan.
Dulles International has a variety of neighboring hotels that offer complimentary shuttle service, including Washington Dulles Airport Marriott, Westin Washington Dulles Airport, and Best Western Dulles Airport Inn. In terms of direct shuttle service, time, proximity, and ease of travel, Hampton Inn & Suites Reagan National Airport, Holiday Inn National Airport, and Residence Inn Arlington Capital View are good choices close to DCA.

After sizing my carry on and getting permission for my bag to go onboard I was stopped at the gate before boarding, the bag was re-sized and they made me check it in.

Cons: "Have to pay for WiFi"
Pros: "Awesome roomy seat right behind business class. Could not have asked for better! And it was a gorgeous new aircraft."

Pros: "The staff were friendly."
Cons: "Bag drop was unnecessarily slow with long processing lines. The gate area and on-boarding process was a zoo. Business Class seats (opposing design) were spartan and relatively uncomfortable. My upstairs 50B seat viewed directly into the wash room which made sleeping impossible. Food was not good. Overall, this is the weakest Business Class experience of recent memory especially for a newer wide-body aircraft."
Cons: "Nickel and diming people for every little thing. I didn't mean to select a paid seat upon making my reservation on-line, and I couldn't get it to come off. Had to pay anyway."
Pros: "+ Last minute aisle seat + Middle seat empty"
Cons: "- Food was passable (chicken and rice for lunch) - Mediocre breakfast"

Cons: "N/a"
Pros: "Crew was fantastic!! Great job."
Pros: "We arrived nearly on time & without issue."
Cons: "The plane was warm & no cool air was being dispersed in the cabin & because of that it was very dry. Better temperature regulation, climate control is needed to make fir a more comfortable flight."
Pros: "On time departure and landed a little early"
Cons: "Seats should recline more More food options"
Pros: "the ground crew gave me an express pass to navigate pass the Summer Holiday TSA queues. Was worried I was going to miss flight. So that’s was super good of ANA ground staff at LAX!"

Cons: "Aircon too cool"
Cons: "Overall a good flight LAX- IAD"
Pros: "Great crew. Comfortable in economy plus."
Cons: "Bigger screens. More options for entertainment."
Pros: "Crew was nice."
Cons: "How much do United Engineers get paid? They can’t figure out how to make the last row recline? And why was this particular flight not able to let me select a seat?"
Pros: "The crew was there when I needed them. And out of the way to help sleep. Nice service on departure with wide range of drinks and snacks. Really like entertainment on devices. Many more options of movies to watch. Easy access to restrooms with one in the front and two in the rear."
Cons: "Baggage collection at Dulles can be improved. It took over 30 minutes for the bag to arrive."
Pros: "The flight was relatively short and uneventful."
Cons: "The workers at the airport, airline door, and flight attendants were all very rude. After sitting in LAX traffic for over 2 hours, they could’ve at least attempted to be friendly and helpful. I swore I’d never fly United again, and this solidified my opinion."
Pros: "Nothing, the seats were really horrendous, the head rest was in such an awkward position that it was better to attempt to hunch over and try to sleep on the tray. The lack of leg room as well made it equally uncomfortable. Seriously, the most uncomfortable flight I have ever been on."
Cons: "See above."
Pros: "The aircrew on my flight to Washington was courteous and efficient. It was a red eye so mostly slept. I understand why the seating has become more cramped and can accept that."
Cons: "The ground crew at the United station at LAX were outrageous. They told me they were tougher than other airports, and they harangued the Economy passengers actually telling them that the Economy ticket didn’t allow them anything. “That it wasn’t worth buying an Economy ticket.” Why do they sell them? These people need some serious customer relations retraining."
Pros: "Did not have any food so an N/A option for this category is needed."
Cons: "The exit, economy plus seat I chose was described as limited recline when it fact the chairs do not recline at all. I was so disappointed. Had I known this, I would have chosen a different seat. My neck was hurting by the end of the flight."
Cons: "Seats with little cushion that make you sit virtually upright for over 5 hours."
Cons: "Would not allow upgrade even thought seats available because my economy ticket was not appropriate for upgrade. Seems that if all those who could upgrade hf upgraded had done so, why not allow the upgrade. Would have been more money for airlines and I would have enjoyed the trip more."
Cons: "The seats are so uncomfortable, they force you to slouch. They should support your lower back instead."
Pros: "Most of the crew were friendly but some board and inattentive"
Cons: "Paying for food and movies"
Pros: "Nothing."
Cons: "My seat was changed without my knowledge or consent and no one was able to tell me why or fix it. I spoke with a united customer service supervisor and have yet to hear from anyome about it."
Pros: "The crew was wonderful; I purchased a business class seat, which was comfortable (although I could not tell the difference between business class and coach seats)."
Cons: "The food was horrible - nothing fit for a person who is diabetic or vegan or non-dairy. And the price was outrageously high for what one received."
Pros: "Excellent experience."
Cons: "Nothing."
Pros: "The seat next to me was empty which made the whole long flight more bearable."

Cons: "Ran out of food (dinner) before they got to my row."
Pros: "Extra legroom"
Cons: "No free entertainment options"
Pros: "It was a newer model 737-900 series plane. Flight was smooth We arrived early. No major issues. Have Tito's vodka."
Cons: "In-flight entertainment offered through your own device only, which would have been fine but the charging port had no power. So essentially (for me), there was no in-flight entertainment. Seats were very narrow and bathrooms smaller than normal. Boarding process seemed to take longer than it should. Flight crew was non-existent after initial beverage service."
Pros: "Lots of beverages offered. Boarding was fine"
Cons: "Lack of food choices and cramped seating"
Cons: "The gate was so far away. And the AC wasn't working in their terminal"
Pros: "Ahead of schedule arriving at IAD"
Pros: "Nothing, I hope they at least served some snacks."
Cons: "Most uncomfortable seats , struggled to sleep during my whole journey."
Pros: "All good"
Cons: "Nothing all travel is ok."
Cons: "Didn't like waiting the extra time to manually pul the airplane away from the gate at departure"
Pros: "From the time of my arrival at LAX the staff was great and kept things moving right alone for me. Almost no waiting at all. The in flight staff was awsome and cheerful and very helpful and observant."
Cons: "The overhead bins were so full that I needed to put my backpack under the seat. That meant that the already-cramped seat was even more cramped. In addition the seat did not recline because it was next to an exit row. It was a red eye and I could not get comfortable enough to sleep. Also, the fact that the screen brightness control was located on top of the seat arm meant that my neighbor's arm kept turning my screen on and increasing the brightness while my neighbor was asleep."
Cons: "selection of tv and movie options on the flight"
Pros: "Free movies!"
Pros: "The crew and staff were great. The flight attendants/coordinator were gracious, professional, and represented United well. The food was good."
Cons: "There was no entertainment, if you did not have your own electronic device.."
Cons: "Inside the cabin still have rooms but they force me to checked the cabin bag in. And it has deep scars on it. Try to fix it but cannot!!"

Pros: "The timing."
Cons: "The landing was a little rough."
Pros: "Good crew."
Cons: "And my boarding group status was downgraded to 5. Consequently bins were so full my smallish roll on was taken and checked through. Not what I would have liked."
Pros: "It was comfortable and crew was friendly."
Cons: "The tv screens were so bright it was hard to sleep."
Pros: "...I got the standby flight....I guess that's cool..."
Cons: "My red eye was delayed35 minutes because of wheel replacement making it impossible for me to make my40 some odd minute layover and I had to burn up hours of my vaca in an airport and reschedule a pick up."
Pros: "I liked everything overall Service Attention Boarding Crew Food, snacks and drinks"
Cons: "Price should include WiFi or at least mention it at ticket purchase so that WiFi service can be purchased. Some trips are budget based and any extra expenditures may unbalance a vacation. I don't mind paying upfront when purchasing tickets but having my wife look at me while I'm about to purchase WiFi for the trip made me uneasy. Thanks"
Pros: "I liked the plane was comfortable"
Cons: "The first TSA lady was confused and caused us to stand in 3 different lines for check in. Another TSA person stepped in and helped us get through quick and we were able to make it on time to our gate."
Cons: "The seats are uncomfortable and the AC wasn't working"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Everything. I had a very tight schedule to visit my friends in canada. What was supposed to be a quick flight turned into almost 24 hours of travel and ariving 12 hours late. I was lucky to have 3 days in with my friends now i only have 2. Not to mention what was supposed to be an inexpensive trip turned i to an expensive one when you are forced to eat airport food after being constantly re routed. I bought my ticket based on ariving to ottawa in the morning this however was not the case. I will be seeking a refund."
Pros: "By getting my ticket from Kayak I was always informed if my flas delay and updates every time. And due to I drove to a far places after I got to Washington I was about to lose my flight but the airline was able to gave me another flight later on. So was perfect."
Pros: "They did not care"
Cons: "Bad"
Cons: "My 3rd old was very hungry and I reached out to cabin staff for any kind of food for purchase, they turned me down saying I need to wait for another hour till the dinner time. Did not provide any help there."

Cons: "An 8hr delay, for a small emergency light part. Missing a day of work."
Cons: "Late boarding and take off"

Pros: "The speed and leg room."
Pros: "Price. Short lines."
Cons: "Website was only partially operable when accessed from a link in an email when trying to "buy a bag" and check in. Had to access site directly, then it worked. However, I spent a frustrating 45 minutes when trying to buy a bag and check in when I used the link. Also had trouble using the Frongier app. Could not check in using it."
Cons: "Plane seemed much noisier than competition."
Cons: "Passenger should have one carry-on for free"
Pros: "The price was somewhat competitive"
Cons: "Comfort was nonexistent, and paying for water is ridiculous"
Pros: "Everyone was very friendly"
Cons: "Cokes, sprites etc should be free"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Delays was really bad small plane took an hour for them to let us have our bags."
Pros: "I like nothing"
Pros: "Same as above comment"
Pros: "We got there ahead of schedule"
Cons: "The carry on fee and seat fee. Come on!"
Cons: "Plane was very uncomfortable."
Cons: "We were stuck on the runway for over an hour after we landed and getting our luggage was a DISASTER. They changed the location of our baggage claim carousel with minimal notice, only to change it back to the original carousel with NO NOTICE. It took over an hour again for our luggage to come out and it trickled in so slowly, that I ended up getting my bag a full two and a half hours after we landed. Awful experience."
Cons: "They wouldn't refund my money"
Pros: "Timeliness, cleanliness, low fare"
Cons: "Slight delay (15 mins) returning from Atlanta, no water offerred onboard"
Cons: "Flight was delayed out of Atlabta and then re-rerouted to Cleveland before finally landing at IAD."
Pros: "Snacks & drinks included."
Cons: "The cost of baggage but on the other hand the airline fare was so inexpensive that in reality the trade off was worth it. You must a strategic packer when flying Frontier."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "The seats were uncomfortable. The boarding was late and we arrived late to my destination. The baggage claim took too long. The pricing for bags were too expensive. I will never use frontier again, that's why there prices are so cheap."
Pros: "The Prices"
Cons: "NOTHING At All. This was great"
Cons: "No WiFi"
Pros: "Price, flight time"
Pros: "Everything worked like clockwork from the boarding, flight. & exiting. The attendants were professional and attentive, in particular with a couple of children traveling without adults. We even arrived about twenty minutes ahead of schedule!!"
Cons: "What's not to like??"
Pros: "I had to book a flight at last minute so I appreciated the low fares that Frontier offers. I have flown Frontier before and miss the televisions that were once in the seats as well as a legitimate tray."
Cons: "Charging for carry-on luggage and charging for soft drinks and snacks is a bit tacky. To not have proper storage for carry-on because emergency equipment was in the overhead suggests poor layout design of the airplane."
Pros: "Got me to where I was going"
Cons: "1 hour late"
Pros: "Boarding was easy and crew was nice"
Cons: "Very tight accommodations."
Pros: "I am handicapped and need a wheelchair to get to the gate. After I arrived at the gate and was ready to pre-board, Frontier sent another attendant to wheel me down the ramp which was fantastic since most times I have to drag and stumble my way down the ramp to board. When the plane arrived at Dulles, there was a wheelchair waiting for me at the door of the plane-a first in many flights. I am grateful for the Frontier staff's consideration and assistance."
Cons: "Having flown Frontier before, I was aware of the baggage charges, so I try to prepare accordingly (pay for all baggage online rather than at the gate). I am a bit perplexed, however, at the seat charge. I am handicapped and must sit in an aisle seat where I can stretch out my leg to some degree. I was told that because I am handicapped I do not have to pay for a special seat, but every time fly Frontier, I have had to pay to get an aisle seat. What do I have to do to get the necessary seating without charge other than sit wherever they place me and chance a circulatory episode?"
Pros: "The flight was quick and easy, the plane was good (nothing special). No food or entertainment but that was ok as it was a short flight. Crew was personable and efficient"
Cons: "It seemed that there was a lack of communication between the flight crew and the check in counter. The ladys at check in said the flight was delayed by two hours but once i got to the gate the board and crew said the flight was on time, so i dont know what that was about."
Pros: "The service from the employees were great. Their attitudes were superior. The flight went with no problems."
Pros: "There were no problems"
Cons: "N/A/"

Cons: "They landed much later than they reported. An hour behind schedule is unacceptable"

Cons: "Delayed"
Pros: "Good"
Cons: "All was ok"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Early gate closing, bad customer experience, delaying my trip by 14 hrs."
Pros: "Getting an exit row."
Cons: "Having to ask for an exit row at the gate before boarding. Instead of at check in."
Pros: "Good"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Unskilled pilots who hit every air-pocket going up and landing. Do not worth the $25 savings compared to united/aa/delta and others."
Pros: "See above"
Cons: "See above"
Cons: "Same comment as previously."
Pros: "Good service"
Pros: "Pilot made funny jokes, lighten things up."

Cons: "The bag-check-in line was out the door and around the corner. This is the line to simply drop off your bag once you've already printed your boarding pass. And it cost $50 to check-in a little 15lbs. bag. But the worst part of the trip was getting my baggage because Spirit had no one in Baltimore to remove the bags from the plane. I waited for an hour for my bags and that's how i brought in the new year!"

Cons: "Unannounced gate change at the last minute. Almost missed plane because the change affected the terminal. It never displayed on the board. We had gone through security and had to exit the airport to get to the switched terminal which was far (10 walk) and had to get through new security check. After going through the full body scanner, a TSA agent patted my hair with her dirty gloves. Nobody should have their hair patted down after going through a full body scanner. This is a violation of my person, of my privacy. Also noted that only coloured women had their hair patted down. We should never be treated like animals or differently than other travelers."
