Capital One has opened its own lounges over the past few years. It first launched at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) (full review here) and then opened lounges in Denver International Airport (DEN) and Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD) with plans to operate lounges at Las Vegas Harry Reid International Airport (LAS) and New York John F Kennedy International Airport (JFK). In addition to these traditional lounges, Capital One is introducing what it calls “Landings.” These will be dining concepts and they were first unveiled in October 2022. The first Capital One Landing opened today at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA).
Capital One Landings have been developed in partnership with world-renowned chef and humanitarian José Andrés and the José Andrés Group. They will be run by Plaza Premium Group and will offer five-star dining with Spanish tapas and other imaginative fare.
The Capital One Landing at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) is 5,483 square feet and located post-security in the airport’s Terminal 2 (at the intersection of National Hall and Concourse D). This is accessible from Concourses B, C, D, and E as they are connected airside. It’s open daily from 6:00 AM to 9:00 PM.
The to-go area that’s known as “On the Fly” is open daily from 5:00 AM to 10:00 PM. Breakfast items, sandwiches, salads, snacks, and drinks for sale and open for anyone to purchase them. If you have the Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card or the Capital One Venture X Business card you’ll get 50% off all purchases.
Unlike most lounges, you are assigned a specific table in the Capital One Landing. From there, you can order tapas and beverages through a QR code on the table. There is seating for 90 guests with power outlets at every seat and Wi-Fi throughout.
Access
Access to the Capital One Landings is similar to the lounges except for the guest policy. Capital One has stated that Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card and Capital One Venture X Business primary cardholders will have unlimited access. They can also enjoy complimentary entry for two guests per visit to the Capital One Lounges, but only one guest in the Landings (it costs $45 per visit for additional guests). Capital One Venture Rewards Credit Card and Capital One Spark Miles for Business cardholders can purchase access for $45. All other cardholders and non-customers can enter for $90. Children under age two can enter for free with a supervising parent or guardian. Access to all amenities is included with lounge entry.
Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card and Capital One Venture X Business cardholders can make reservations in the Capital One app in advance (whether it’s several months or one day before) of their visit. All Capital One cardholders will be able to see the real-time capacity of the Landing from the convenience of their phone. If a Capital One Landing is on a waitlist, Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card and Capital One Venture X Business cardholders can join the waitlist digitally in the Capital One mobile app. They will be notified via text message when it’s their turn to enter the Landing, and can view their waitlist status within the Capital One app at any time. There is a 15-minute grace period for reservations and you may make as many as you like without a cancellation penalty.
Anthony’s Take: I can’t wait to check out the Capital One Landing at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA). I might just have to fly there to check it out.
