Picking up in Bethesda
The NIH and Walter Reed campuses are large, gated, and not a single drop-off point — a pickup at "NIH" can mean a dozen different buildings behind a security perimeter. Naming the building and gate turns a confusing pickup into a normal one.
How the pickup works at Reagan National
Your chauffeur waits in the Reagan National cell phone waiting area — not at the curb and not circling — so nothing is added to your fare while you are still collecting bags.
The day before your trip we text you your chauffeur’s direct number. Once you are outside, call them — or dispatch on (202) 766-7518 — and give the door number you are standing at and the colour of what you are wearing. That last detail is the one most people leave out, and at a busy arrivals door it is what turns a phone call into a pickup. From that call your chauffeur is with you in about five minutes.
Most flights into this region land between about 2:00 and 4:30 in the afternoon, and bags come off slower in that window because the aircraft arrive together. Your first 60 minutes of wait are complimentary and start at landing, so this is normally absorbed there.
