Valet
Not published
Hand off at the curb. "Not published" means DCA does not offer or publicly price it.
Drive-up (non-reserved) rates: Economy Lot $7/hr, $25/day; Parking 1 and Parking 2 both $7/hr with a $35/day maximum. Lower rates require reserving at reserve.flyreagan.com. Terminal garages include a grace period of up to 60 minutes. MWAA lists no valet product at DCA.
Drive-up daily maximums verified on the official DCA website on 2026-08-08. Rates change and tax treatment differs by airport, so they are not directly comparable airport-to-airport. Check current DCA rates.
How to compare: multiply the rate above by your trip length, then compare that total against a one-night hotel rate that includes parking for the same period. The longer the trip, the more the bundled option tends to win.
Drag the sliders to estimate trip costs based on the airport parking rate and hotel-bundle price you enter. The estimate uses only the values you provide — actual rates vary by airport, hotel, and travel dates.

Reagan National sits just across the Potomac from downtown DC and is connected by Metro. Airport-area hotels in Crystal City and Pentagon City offer free parking and short shuttle rides.
Two terminals. Terminal 1 covers Gates A1–A9; Terminal 2 covers Gates B10–E59. Parking 1 connects to Terminal 1 by an underground walkway; Parking 2 connects to Terminal 2 by covered walkways at Level 2. Rental car counters are on Level 1 of Parking 1.
Hotel courtesy shuttles have dedicated stops: Terminal 1 at the second curb by the Hotel Shuttle Shelter near Door 3; Terminal 2 on the inner curb at 'Hotel Shuttle Stops' near Doors 4 and 7. All Terminal 2 shuttle pickup is now on the Baggage Claim (Arrivals) level. For DCA's own parking shuttle, take the elevator to Level 1 of either garage and exit to the 'Parking/Rental Cars' bus stop — free, 24/7.
This is the detail most travelers get wrong. Confirm the pickup point with your hotel when you book — shuttle stops move during construction, and at several airports they are not at the arrivals curb at all.
Worth knowing at DCA: Economy Lot capacity is cut by roughly 40% while a new parking structure is built inside the lot, with construction extending into 2026 — DCA itself advises drive-up customers to reserve ahead or take Metrorail instead. That squeeze makes a nearby hotel-with-parking stay unusually competitive here.
The rates on this page were taken from the official DCA airport website on 2026-08-08. Airports adjust parking pricing periodically — most often at the start of a calendar or fiscal year — so confirm before you travel: official DCA parking rates.
