JD MaloneSeptember 9, 2017If you have the time take a look at the exhibits. Also, there's many conspiracy theories about this airport if you want something to read on your next flight.
Christina GMarch 29, 2013The people that work here are extremely nice, empathetic and helpful! I'm terrified of flying & they did everything in their power to make sure I had a pleasant experience on & off the plane.
PSA: hiking sticks are considered weapons at this airport. You WILL be required to check them in so save yourself the trip thru security, resign yourself to your fate, and check a bag from the get go.
Fluying ✅July 11, 2016Picking an Uber is very easy, just be ready with your bags and specify in the app which terminal and door you are.
Paul TroupeAugust 16, 2014So many good food options available. Lots of power outlets available. And a Broncos store! Great airport, just beat the snowstorm and careful, it's a ways from downtown
If you Uber here, & already checked in, have them drop off United West side, first door (no matter what airline). You can take the escalator directly to TSA or Normal Security. Less walking!
DIA has great sculptures all over each terminal making it a nicer place. They also have many restaurants and cafes to choose from. Try Belgian Beer!
I had on a sweater with a metallic thread throughout it & found out that was enough to set off the machine at screening. The agent I had was very professional, kind & offered privacy if I wished.
If you have enough time, check out the New Belgium Hub for decent food and good beer. It is a hike at the end of concourse B, but worth it.
If you need a trusty, efficient, and budget friendly ride to parts outside of Denver...like Keystone or Vail, check out Colorado Mountain Express. Excellent service and free WIFI on their vehicles.
William PomerantzApril 8, 2019Don’t miss the statue of Apollo 13 astronaut in the Terminal B train station. Just by seeing it, you lower your Kevin Bacon score to 2! 🤣
What is it about the middle if the country and airport food? A major untied hun and Wetzles, Pizza Hut, and caramel corn dominate the United terminal. Best best is Steve's Snappin' Dogs.- Great airport! So much to do and see! I love to get there early before a flight and walk around! Visit each concourse as they are all different!!
In Concourse B, if the bars on the lower level are crowded (particularly during sports), check the bars in the mezzanine in the center of the concourse. Much easier to find a seat up there.
Take a note from The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy and bring a towel. Men's bathrooms only have air dryers and I can't say they work all that well. Or don't bother washing your hands. J
Rachel MurrayJune 15, 2022Beautiful but confusing. Lovely and airy with decent food and shopping selection but signage and lack of semi-quiet places to work or plug-in make it a sensory stress point
Kelly AOctober 17, 2020Big and clean airport! I low how they have a baggage claim area just for skis and snowboards.
If you are looking to avoid the crowds and relax, head to the upper level of terminals A and C. Also, the upper level of terminal B has fancy chairs with built-in power outlets.
Excellent airport. Efficient. Easy to navigate. And an excellent hub for international and domestic travel.
Love the colorful, wall size USA maps near baggage claim showing unique/odd/strange landmarks around the country. Great way to distract yourself while you wait for your luggage!
Get warmed up for snowboarding by stand-up surfing the tram between terminals. Can you make it without grabbing a rail? One of the trickier trams to surf, there's a couple of tight corners!
Cannon SayersApril 3, 2015Love the service, the cafes and food places there are great, but the only, one and only thing I had a small tiny problem with was the baggage claim. It takes a while before the baggage comes out...
Love the @United flights going through DEN but don't care for running from one end of the terminal (Gate 88) to the other (Gate 20) and almost miss boarding!
Jamba Juice is in Concourse B on the top level. The food selection in general is the best in that Concourse. It's only a train stop away!
- Richard EfthimJanuary 22, 2017Like that they have lots of recharging stations here! Plus for those with small pets I noticed they had a pet relief station. Nice touch and certainly needed.
Go over the bridge to Terminal A the lines usually aren't that long but check the TV monitor and then grab a Dunkin Donuts coffee(best value in airport).
If you need to run in and pick up family and friends there is super short term parking by the door. It's amazing just make sure you keep to the right as you head towards pick-up!!
Root Down in Concourse C is an excellent restaurant with great vegetarian options (and meat options too).
LáserDecember 16, 2013One of the nicest most efficient airports in the world. The only downside, there's no public transport to the city
Hannah AlkadiJuly 23, 2021There are North and South gates for security. Sometimes one is less populous than the other. Listen to the staff, they may direct you to one with a shorter line!
Lili BorbaMay 15, 2018Denver was the first airport where I've seen pet friendly space where our pet friends can rest and relax a bit while they wait for their travels. 🐶❤️- Ken SellersOctober 24, 2017For a large airport, good in almost every way except the security lines. We always park in $13/day economy parking. The walk isn't bad.
Still construction in the main terminal? Looking for coffee? Head south then downstairs to the transit center. Delicious coffee at The Roasting Plant.
Construction is constantly changing the landscape of the terminal, be sure to have a little extra time in case the route you're walking gets cut off!
MCC DenverFebruary 11, 2014If you are at the main terminal picking someone up or just visiting in the main terminal, don't forget to stop by to take a picture with Xolotl, a colorful 14-feet tall "alebrije".
Morgan HDecember 24, 2021This airport needs to take tips from IAH on labeling check-in, and when needing to go up to the terminals which gates are closest to each elevator.
I like the organization of DIA. It’s not too difficult to get around and there are many good options for food and services- I love flying home to DEN. The airport is clean, easy to get around, and cheery. TSA can get backed up at times, so leave early.
- Jan PoepkeDecember 8, 2014Very nice airport! I liked it especially when coming from Europe and having connection flights.. they go to everywhere (it's a United hub).
Myra Palevsky KaufmanDecember 28, 2011If you've got the time, come to A Massage on Level 2 B Terminal and get a little foot or shoulder and back massage. Great tension reliever when traveling & great way to kill to kill time at DIA!!
Check out the large blue horse with glowing red eyes. It's said that the souls of the creator is embedded in since the sculpture feel on him and killed home while making it.
It’s good to get here two hours early. It’s busy and the lines are long. This isn’t one of those places where you can make it happen quickly. Otherwise, don’t forget to leave the weed at home.
Security / Police at pick up Arrivals are incredibly misdirected. Police cite in speed traps that go from 75 to 50 and visa versa a 50 mph acceleration lane to 65. Must do pick up in 11 seconds.
If you've got a connecting flight on United, make sure when booking, to give yourself plenty of time between connections as this is a big ass airport & it could take you a while getting to your gate.
Miguel CastroJanuary 6, 2016The airport has free wi-fi, it also has nice stores & restaurants, the people that works here its very kind. I can not complain about anything.
If you don’t have TSA pre pass plan to be there early. Denver is a very busy airport and once through security you need to take a tram to all gates. Do yourself a favor & plan extra time.
