DCA - Elite Access Security Line
Does anyone know if there's an Elite Access line for security at DCA? Its my first time flying through in many years and with all that's going on in the news today, I'd love to know if there's an elite line (I'm elite on Continental).
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.

I know that US has elite access in the north concourse but I do not know if CO has it; however I am tempted to believe that they do.

DCA Elite Security Lines
There definitely are Elite lines at the CO/DL security line. The only problem is that they don't enforce them! The CO/DL line is currently on the left side (nearest CA Pizza Kitchen) as you approach security. It has changed over time though.

I was thrilled when they started having an elite line a few months ago, but that happiness has surely worn off!

Just noticed this thread. There is an Elite Access line at the entrance to the CO/DL concourse. Currently, they seem to police it much better than they used to. They tend not to bother policing it during off-peak times when traffic is not heavy. In those instances, it seems to be treated as just another line, so you're best off picking the shortest line.

There is an elite line at AA gates, but it's often closed. If the line is getting longish and the elite line isn't opened, I've asked if I could use the line, and they've always allowed me.
