And it has the worst Dunkin’ Donuts on earth. We were there last week and they had bagels but no butter or cream cheese because they said they got stopped at security, WTF! Then how did they get the drinks in there? Also, no lattes, just hot coffee and iced coffee coffee.

What's with the odd shopping option? It is like pay over here if you care to or just walk away with your item.

Hate terminal a — even my kids ask whether we are flying out of there and why they can’t put in a Starbucks. I still think it’s better than Dulles though but BWI is way better.
I walked from terminal a to the regular terminal last night at 11 pm and it was like a scene from a post apocalyptic movie —- just a long deserted tunnel with weird art.

Terminal 1 is the old original airport terminal, so they're limited in what they can do. It's a dump, which is why it's mostly low-cost carriers like Frontier and Southwest flying out of there. Somehow, Air Canada got the short end of the stick and ended up there too. I've flown on a $5k+ business class ticket (via Toronto to Asia) out of that Terminal. What a mess.

So nice to stay home for the holidays.

We waited 55 minutes for our checked bags at midnight in Term 1 last week.

DCA is so much better than other airports.

Yep. Give me Terminal A over the death march to Dulles any day!

A terminal is discount carriers plus AC. It is old, small, and busy.

No. That would be Penn Station NY in rush hour

Flew through here last week and it was horrible.
It is so crowded and people are constantly trampling each other. WTF.
