Reagan airport runways are not long enough for larger planes however Baltimore and Andrews air base aren't that far away.
But it's a damn movie that needs drama/suspense.

I remember watching this with a pilot friend, and he was losing his mind. The first time they would not get a response from DC the planes would've diverted. At 1/4 tank, the planes are considered out of fuel and will land anywhere . The pilot has the authority to ignore commands from the tower if they are in danger of running out of fuel.
