Pro Tips

  • The A-Line train is the single best transport option — Denver traffic on E-470 and Pena Blvd can add 30–60 minutes during rush hour.
  • DEN is the highest-elevation major airport in the US (5,431 ft); altitude can affect some passengers — stay hydrated.
  • Frontier's hub at Concourse A is often a bargain option for Rocky Mountain destinations — check their bundled fares.
  • Winter weather delays are common December–March; check road and runway conditions before heading to the airport.
  • The underground train between Concourses A, B, and C is free and runs inside security — use it, don't walk.
  • Parking at the on-site economy lot is cheaper; the Pikes Peak shuttle lot is the most affordable long-term option.
  • Denver's thin air means planes often need longer runways for takeoff — flight delays during hot summer afternoons are not unusual.
