It’s roughly a 9–12 minute drive to DCA, covering about 4–5 miles via I-395, depending on traffic. With SoCalPark, your space is already secured, so you can skip the search and go straight from arrival to check-in.
Shuttle service runs daily from 6:00 AM to 8:00 PM, with departures to DCA every 30 minutes. This covers the vast majority of domestic flight schedules. Your SoCalPark reservation ensures your parking is already secured, so you can arrive and catch the next shuttle without hassle.
