  • Hello!
    In this video I take the DC Metro's Yellow Line to show you all how to get from Washington National Ronald Reagan Airport to Downtown Washington, DC (Chinatown). I explain how to get to the metro station, how to buy and reload a SmarTrip card (the transit card), and how to make the short journey on the train.

    Excellent! Thank you. Best wishes, maybe we'll see you there!
    I took this line years ago and had to ask some military gentlemen to let us exit the door. I asked the guy with the most stripes and he asked them all to move. It was truly a magical moment -- still treasured. We thanked him and exited. While the people at the Pentagon may appear stern or unemotional, they are very helpful. That trip our station was near our hotel. What a delight!

    Good audio and camera work, and I appreciate the little stops to look at fun art and informational placard-type things.

    I frequent The District to visit friends a few times a year and love it down there. DC Metro is a relatively easy system to navigate, due to it being colour coded lines/ Especially love the 7K cars. Looking forward to the arrival of the 8K cars from Hitachi. National Airport, as the natives still call it is a great airport and very convenient to central DC and VA.

    Great video! The future pedestrian bridge from DCA to Crystal City is going to make connectivity even better!

      IIRC, there are plans for Amtrak to stop there too. They could rename the station “Arlington/National Airport.”

    I flew through DCA 3 times last year and never knew there was a shuttle between terminals.

    Those DC Metro machines were very intimidating and confusing the first time I had to use them. Luckily the next time I rode the Metro, I watched a youtube tutorial on how to use them. They became a little more straight forward. Though I still don't like those machines. Time for an update.

      Yeah. They should probably update them to a touchscreen model.

      @@nathantransitj Yeah it was not fun trying to figure out that machine leaving Gallery Place after a Caps game and holding up the line.
