I want to travel to Washington DC from Toronto next week for non-essential purposes. I am a Canadian Permanent Resident and have a US B-2 visa. While I checked with United and they said I am allowed to enter the US, I don't find any quarantine requirements for Washington DC except for travelers entering DC from one of the US states. Also it does not state anything specific for travelers with less than 14 day stay in the US.

I want to take advantage of the $20 Acela tickets by Amtrak. For this, my plan is to enter Washington DC, stay in a hotel, take Acela the next day to NJ, take another Acela back to DC the same day, fly back to Toronto the next day.

Has anyone who recently travelled to Washington DC share their experiences?

Also it does not state anything specific for travelers with less than 14 day stay in the US.

The quarantine (which I don't think apply to you) doesn't prevent you from going to the airport.


Update: no idea why this answer got downvoted. JonathanReez's answer points to https://washington.org/dc-information/coronavirus-travel-update-washington-dc, which confirms my answer: can go to the airport (and no quarantine). Also, no need for COVID test if staying less than 24 hours in DC.
