Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (or simply National Airport) is a Washington Metro station in Arlington, Virginia on the Blue and Yellow Lines.

The station is located at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport on an elevated platform across from the main terminal, with shuttle service to the old terminal. It is one of the only stations in the system to have three tracks, the other being West Falls Church. The center one was where Blue and Yellow Line trains would terminate before the southern stations were built, and Blue Lines train still, but rarely, terminate there. In 1998, the name changed along with the airport to include Ronald Reagan's name. Before then, it was simply National Airport. Service began on July 1, 1977.
