Maybe she really is this dumb and didn't realize where they were headed.
She was almost certainly flying out of IAD (no direct flights to AK from DCA, I'm guessing UA flies IAD-ANC but I'm not positive), and I'm assuming they dropped her at DCA. There are a bajillion places they could have met that are roughly the same distance from those. And most people who get a car service are probably on their phones the whole way to the airport.
I might not notice if someone was driving me to the wrong airport but I'd definitely notice before I got out of the car, but I'm a super frequent flyer and airport nerd. Someone who doesn't go to DC very often could easily not notice.
