Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport is a public airport located 3 statute miles (4.8 km) south of downtown Washington, D.C., in Arlington County, Virginia.[2] It is the commercial airport nearest to Washington, D.C. For many decades, the airport was called Washington National, but the airport was renamed Ronald Reagan Washington National in 1998 to honor former U.S. President Ronald W. Reagan. The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority (MWAA) operates the airport. Reagan National is a hub for US Airways, Reagan National's largest carrier. The US Airways Shuttle offers near-hourly air shuttle service to LaGuardia Airport in New York City and Logan International Airport in Boston, Massachusetts. Delta Air Lines' Delta Shuttle also offers near-hourly air shuttle service to LaGuardia. Reagan National only provides US immigration and customs facilities for corporate jet traffic; the only international flights allowed to land at DCA are those from airports with U.S. Customs and Border Protection preclearance facilities. For all other international passenger flights, those in the Washington Metropolitan Area can use Dulles International Airport west of the city and Baltimore-Washington International Airport northeast of the city.
