Easy Airport to get around, very clean and the security line was only about 6 mins. D.I.A. Always seems to have

The airport is continuing to go down hill. Same long TSA queues, lack of shops and bars and now the mayor
has decided to phase out smoking bars, hence many smokers have to stand outside and the smoking bar on
concourse A is normally full to capacity. Yet another short sighted move. I think it shows why airports need
to be in the private sector, as they are elsewhere.

My flights in and out of DIA were later at night (10.30 and 12.20am), so the airport wasn't busy. Pickup and
drop off by a family member was quick and easy. It was clean, people were friendly, and some shops and
restaurants were open although it was late. In concourse A the security area is open, but I didn't mind. I can
imagine the lines get quite long as it is a small area. There could have been a larger seating area at the
gate. The intercoms for the other gates can be heard throughout the adjoining gates, which led to some
confusion. Overall, it was comfortable and pleasant.

Do not like traveling through Denver Airport. First time and had to rent a car. Pickup was no problem, but
drop off we almost froze to death waiting to get on the shuttle to take us to the terminal area, the driver
stopped at the rental stop which meant we had to cross 4 lanes of traffic/buses to actually access the
terminal. Fortunately we did not have any check in baggage only carry on. Thank goodness there was not a
snow storm while we waited for the shuttle. The rentals need to build a waiting area for customers. Security
was dreadful. It felt like an open air arena for spectators to watch us all disrobe, not to mention watch us all
put our wallets and purses and technology on open display for anyone on the overhead walk way to make
note off. The security area was in the middle of the airport lobby taped off so the wandering spectators did
not walk through! In all my travels security areas are completely separated from public view and access
unless one is flying. Come on Denver you can do better than this.

The TSA lines are absolutely ridiculous here. Flew Delta twice in past month, both times it took 1.5 hours in
early am from Homewood Suites to drop off Hertz Car, suffer through the Delta Sky Priority ticketing desk and
make it through security. Be advised that the Premium lane at TSA moves at 1/3 the speed of the general
lanes.

Every time I fly into to DEN the gate of my connecting flight has been changed at the last minute. That would
be workable but the flight status monitors do not reflect the change, never! I am curious to why DEN needs
to make more gate changes than other airports. The issue of the monitors not being up to date has been a
long-standing issue with many, many airport. Wonder why that is the case.

I fly through DEN every other week. I know this airport very well. My main complaint with DEN is that it has
the worst Internet and phone coverage of any major airport I know of. It is hard to get a phone connection
and then hold it for more than a few minutes. The free Internet provided by Boingo is so slow that it is pretty
much useless. If you are a business traveler and have any scheduled layover where you will need
connectivity, plan ahead.

DIA continues to slide. I've flown out of this airport for 15+ years and it doesn't get any better. Queues are
longer, waits for baggage are longer, it's crowded, and it seems like an unusually large number of flights are
delayed. Getting through security can be a nightmare. I'd rather fly through Charles de Gaulle, and that's
saying something. I'm also shocked at how rude the officials are at passport control. Overall, this used to be
a very good airport and now it's one of the worst in the US.

First time flying out of Denver yesterday. So much airport construction added confusion and roundabout
delays to a long drive from town. Flying US Airways, printed boarding pass at kiosk and requested wheelchair
was soon there (I'm 81, a lifelong flyer but that altitude got me). I had 55 minutes to make it thru security
and to the gate. You'd think that was enough time. The man assigned to take me via wheelchair was the
most casual person I've ever seen. He strolled so slowly from one end of the enormous terminal past all the
shops and eateries, to the gate, via terminals, corridors, elevators, trains, and my gate, E15, was the last
one, naturally. Actually feared missing my plane while my aide sleepwalked along. At E terminal, gates are
numbered down from 37 to 15. Finally at the gate and the gate agent said, "You just made it." I was a
wreck from trying to get the w/c attendant to speed it up to normal walking speed at least! Gave him a $5
tip anyway, but they closed the door after me! Hope I never have to fly in or out of Denver again. There's
too much sprawl with no geographical features to hem it in. Never had time to note those murals, or to get
any food before takeoff, though we left Denver at 8 am for a 10.20 domestic flight. Wish I'd had an idea of
the vastness of the terminal from check-in to gate. Would have left two hours earlier to enjoy the amenities.
A wheelchair is a definite requirement there for an older person, though I'm in very good health except for a
recently-torn ACL.

Once you are actually in the airport, it's lovely. Getting to the airport, however, is not nearly as pleasant.
Flew in and out of Denver in June 2012. On the return, from the time we arrived at the rental car return lot,
it took 45 minutes to get to the gate, and the security line was just a couple of minutes. The car rental lots
are a long bus ride from the terminal, and if you are returning to Terminal West, there's now a detour. If you
don't need to check in, take a bus to Terminal East if you can. Car rental prices at DIA are much higher than
in Denver, and the taxes are fees are very high - about 25%. If you can pick up your rental car downtown -
admittedly not very practical with the transit options to downtown, you can save a lot of money. I'm sure the
airport works well for connections - but watch out for thunderstorm delays in summer - but for actually
visiting Denver, it's not very convenient.

I fly in and out of Denver a few times per year. Security times aren't the fastest, but much faster than many other
Airports. Check in is very fast, and the terminal is easy to navigate. Many restaurants have lots of people, but
the service is fast so you don't have to wait long. Shops in the concourses aren't very crowded. The airport is
built for a higher capacity than it serves, so waiting for other planes doesn't take very long. Travel Tip: There
are TWO security lines in the main terminal, plus an extra in concourse A. The concourse A security can be used no
matter which concourse you are flying out of. So just pick the shortest line.

I fly through DEN 3-5 times a year, always though B Concourse. While there is a sense of spaciousness
because of the high ceilings, it is crowded, always crowded - thronged would be a better word. The airport
sits on a windswept mesa miles from any real services. Woe betide you if you face a spate of cancelled
flights in the winter! The place is pleasant enough, with a variety of middle of the road food choices, but the
new smoking lounge in the centre of Concourse B and the DEN Boingo implementation are two real black
marks. No smoking lounge can never be made not to smell, and when patrons come out the door they carry a
powerful cigarette/cigar odour down the corridor with them. As for Boingo, when you open a browser on a
smartphone Boingo comes up as your only option and though it isn't free, it's not obvious how to get past it
to search through your cellular device alone. The only way I could find to deal with it was to turn off wireless
services. DEN has a much better physical plant than PHX for instance, but is nowhere near as traveller-
friendly.

I use DIA at least once a month and for a major airport it is a disappointment. For those who travel often you
will understand that this an airport that does not cater to you. The so called free wi-fi is unable to perform
the simplest tasks and most of the restaurant/bars are so over crowded that you better not be in a hurry.
Some are worse than others but I won't mention any names. Fix the wi-fi or at least give me an alternative.

Nice big well laid out airport. Flew in this past week and deplaning was easy, no trouble getting into
terminal, friendly folks to point the way. Return arrived early, security took maybe 15-20 minutes tops. TSA
were actually pretty friendly. Plenty of shops, tram is quick and efficient, folks at gate friendly. Only complain
is the rental cars are not at the terminal. You have to take a bus about a 10 minute ride out to the car
agencies which means you have to account for this upon returning. Better than the other major gateways of
NYC and LAX for sure.

The choice of restaurants and shops and the overall cleanliness of the airport was pretty impressive. Even the
airport transportation from Pikes Peak parking area to the airport was well co-ordinated with reasonable
waiting times. The only drawback is the security line, however, security staff are pleasant and respectful,
unlike many other airports.

After checking my bags at the curb, I was unable to obtain a boarding pass. I had to wait to check-in at the gate.
I have an artificial hip which usually causes me to set off the old style scanners. After an inefficient wait to have
my items scanned, I requested to go through the new x-ray machines. I was told, no. I was told that it was
because I didn't have someone to watch my belongings. I was forced to set off the detector alarms and submit
myself to a pat-down in front of hundreds of people. It is a shame that Denver airport leaves such a bad
impression in what would have been a pleasant journey. To top it all off, since I was detained for so long at
security and didn't get my boarding pass at the curb, I had to sit at the back of the plane in the middle.

There is one huge problem with this airport. It is very easy to walk out of the security area without meaning to. I
used to live in Denver so when I was scheduled to transit through DIA enroute from Atlanta to Sacramento I
decided that I would have dinner at a restaurant in the main terminal that I used to eat at. When I lived there the
upper level in the main terminal was part of the secure area - now it isn't. I came out in the main terminal and
realized that I was outside the security area. It took me 45 mins to get back inside the security area. Fortunately I
made my connecting flight. Needless to say I didn't have dinner. I bet this happens all the time - airport
management should put up some signs - lots of other airports do.

I have used DEN 3 times and every time it has been a pleasant experience. Signage has been no problem
throughout the terminal and I have always been able to find my way without any problems. The terminal
has spacious concourses and it seems to be able to handle the considerable passenger load better than most
airports of its size and traffic volume. Some of the carpeting in the terminal is getting a bit faded, but
the upkeep is very good overall. The security personnel had serious, but professional manners and the lines
were reasonably short. The distance to downtown Denver is a bit long, but not unreasonable (many cities have
longer distances).

Arrived from Dulles. Has three terminals (A, B, C), and they are connected by a train, which is
very quick. You could probably get from A to C in 5 minutes on this train, although I don't
know how often they arrive. TSA security line was very long and slow moving, although you can
sign up to an express security scheme there for an annual fee, so this may be worthwhile for
people who frequently go through DEN. After arriving, you need to take the train to baggage
claim, which can be a tedious journey to go to the other side of the airport just to collect
your bags. Sign posting for this is not immediately apparent to someone new to the airport.
Ground transportation to downtown is plentiful, but taxis are expensive ($65). Best to get the
$20 airport shuttle bus, which your hotel can arrange, and which you can pay in cash. ATMs
everywhere, but they appear not to take Maestro cards, so be warned. Distance from downtown is
quite far, and a car or taxi takes just under 40 minutes early in the morning, and possibly
longer later in day with traffic. Huge selection of excellent cafes, restaurants and souvenir
stores. Also has small number of internet PC stations, so you wont need a wi-fi enabled laptop
to get online here. Helpful, friendly staff.

I fly in and out of Denver, and it is one of the airports that you can figure your way around
and also allows you to be able to find things you might have not expected. With the
allowance to walk to terminal A and go through security there if you dont want to deal with the bigger
security lines to keeping everything in check and also clean as can be, it makes it such a
nice place to travel through, just wish the luggage would have been a little faster.

There are no hotels you can walk to from the terminal. Everything is located at maximum
distance from everything else - rental cars, accommodations, and shopping. High speed rail to
Union Station doesn't exist. If forced to stay overnight while changing planes vast amounts
of time are involved getting to/from your hotel. I cannot conceive what the planners had in
mind to create such an isolated, ill-suited and tedious facility. Denver is a beautiful city
but it is a distant glow from the terminal windows.

I've flown into and out of Denver several times. Since we live overseas, we always arrive at
Denver after at least 30 hours of traveling, and late at night. However, Denver is one of a
few airports that I land at after a long trip, and do not feel like I'm cramped, stressed, or
outdated. The terminals are very large and spacious and allow a large amount of natural light
to illuminate the area. Even during the height of the holiday season when there are hoards of
people flocking to Denver, the airport gives the sense that it is never really crowded. Even
the train system is rarely jammed with people. Despite that, the problem that always seems to
hit me, is that my bag is always delayed or lost. After traveling for 30+ hours, the last
thing you want to do is wait for your bag, or, even worse, be told that it will be delivered
the following day. My suggestion is that Denver needs to find a real solution to their baggage
problems. The "new" system has been a complete failure, and United will no longer be using it
because of maintenance costs.

As a long term resident of the Denver metro area, I appreciated the location of the previous
Stapleton International Airport for passenger convenience (excellent bus connections, for
example) and layout (you could walk to any gate relatively quickly), but recognized the value
of relocating and improving the runway situation for operations. DIA's downsides are its
location, vulnerability of passenger and crew access during snow or ice storms (which
sometimes close the access road, and regularly make it hazardous), security (Hint: there is a
generally less used security post to Concourse A that I use even when flying from a different
concourse - access over the direct access bridge, past the changing art exhibit is very
pleasant - then transfer to another concourse if needed), and lack of a walking or people-
mover alternative to the trains in accessing Concourses B and C as is available in ATL, for
example. Somewhat better direct international connectivity would be nice. DIA's upsides are
its architecture, relative spaciousness, airport art, the very pleasant bridge and changing
art exhibition space between the terminal and Concourse A (leading to that third, less-
utilized though smaller, security checkpoint), runway design, passenger-handling capacity
(except for extreme travelling periods), and a couple of food and beverage outlets. The
personal greeting by Denver's mayor as you arrive in the train at the terminal is a nice
touch.

A very nice airport in many respects. Internet access is poor. Abysmal free Internet service
is erratic and won't permit sending SMTP email. They should allow pay services in addition.
This is a big problem for business users, and I haven't been able to find where to complain
to. (Quest and then Skyport used to provide free LAN connections for business users but the
space has been abandoned [Terminal B upstairs]. Nearest motels are 15 minutes away. The
airport is supposedly the second largest (52 sq miles) but the amount of wasted space is truly
extraordinary.

We had some time on a stopover and thought it might be nice to show our sin the terminal
building, which is a great and impressive building. To our surprise, we had left the secure
area simply by staying on the train to the terminal -- there is no indication that you have
done so. We also felt that the scrutiny was severe. Liquids that were allowed through at our
airport of origin were confiscated at Denver. We were lucky that the lines were not too long.

I've been through DIA many times and it's a pretty good airport. One of the best for the US.
There are a lot of shops in and outside the secure area. Baggage is fast. Customs is fast.
Security isn't always fast, but it's never ungodly slow. Moving around the airport is pretty
painless too. Personnel at ticket counters are professional and curteous. All the staff around
the airport are generally pretty helpful. The only bad thing about DIA is that it's a hub for
United. So if you go through DIA on an international flight or connecting to international,
you're probably stuck with United, and that's no fun.

I fly in and out of DIA regularly. For the most part, it is quite a pleasant airport, not
terribly crowded, pretty efficient. Long security lines are possible, especially coming from
places like Mexico City. Hold onto your bags! I put my baggage 10 feet in front of me, and a
porter took it from in front of my eyes. He thought they were someone else's bags. By the time
I caught up with him, he had loaded the bags into a limo, which then drove away. I tried for
weeks to get the baggage back (it contained my passport, wallet, $1,000 in photo equipment,
warm jacket, house keys, laptop, cell phone - everything you never want stolen), but nobody
was able to help me get it back. There are some dishonest people milling about. Please be
aware of that, no matter how tired or safe you feel at DIA.

Check-in is generally quick and efficient. Security wait times can build up, especially at the two
main security check-points. Overall, TSA staff courteous. The inter-terminal tram comes every three
minutes. DIA has a huge variety of gift shops, book stores, restaurants, and coffee houses, though
the restaurants do tend to be kind of generic. If you are planning on connecting from an
international flight to a domestic flight, I would recommend keeping at least a two-hour gap, as
customs in Denver can be a little slow, but you should be able to get out in about an hour.
Domestic arrival into Denver is easy, as baggage generally comes quickly, RTD skyride buses get you
into the city for about $10. Thankfully, due to the recent surge by Southwest, DIA isn't dominated
by United Airlines, but flying out of Denver, is still a little more expensive than other US
airports. The architecture is stunning and the airport looks new despite being nearly 13 years old!
The only negatives at this airport are the location, the security lines, and the alluring loneliness
of the airport, due to its large size.

Main problems at DEN are security waits at peak hours (often 30 minutes or more, since they funnel
everybody through two checkpoints, which are often understaffed), the large distances between
terminals, and the distance from the city itself. The positives are the relatively friendly staff,
good express bus service to the city center available right outside the terminal doors, free WiFi in
the terminals, and ability to withstand winter weather (I've flown through three times during
light/moderate snow, and no problems with delays). I wouldn't want to try and make a connecting
flight here, especially if there's less than 90 minutes between flights, but it's an OK airport if
you're starting and ending your trip there.

Denver International Airport review by K Sexton
28 March 2008 Customer Rating : 
This airport was clearly designed and built right before the security changes after 9/11. All the
good restaurants are on the wrong side of security and therefore deserted, while the small food
stands in the concourses are over crowded. The wait/line at security is monumental, and there needs
to be an alternative to using the train to get to your concourse, such as the pedestrian tunnel at
Hartsfield. Forcing everyone onto the sardine can train is not fair. I realize airports are not
something one would want to live next to, but the location is crazy. Easily any hour's commute from
south Denver, combined with the rigors of the over-inflated airport itself can add hours to a trip
that once in the air may be shorter than your wait at security.
Denver International Airport review by D Brock
14 March 2008 Customer Rating : 
For its size, a very good airport, especially if transiting. A bit less if starting or ending
there, as security lines and baggage are a bit problematic. Security lines variable, often quick,
sometimes maddeningly long and understaffed. They are making some progress: for example, having
people who will guide you across to the "other" screening if one is less crowded (DEN has two main
screening lines, with their entrances at the far ends of the very large main building, so it is
difficult to quickly decide which one to use. There is a third, smaller screening across the bridge
to Concourse A). Baggage claim can be a wait, and seems to be getting worse. Baggage claim also
seems needlessly cramped: for example, all Frontier baggage is on three carousels (Frontier is
Denver's 2nd largest carrier), so they are perpetually crowded (the signage often showing more than
one page worth of flights coming on each carousel), when other carousels are empty.

A functional airport. Check-in efficient and security waits generally less than 10 minutes.
Concourse A is the closest and the walk across the bridge provides a stunning view of the airport.
Most of the staff friendly. Customs/immigration process has been improved and I was out in less than
45 minutes after my flight from London Heathrow. Be prepared to walk a lot at Denver because the
airport is so spread out - my guess is that you'll probably walked at least a mile by the time you
reach your gate.

I've been through Denver dozens of times, and find it on the whole to be one of the best airports in
the US. Despite its size, it's easy to get around, and I've found airport staff to always be helpful.
As the airport grows in passenger volume, I wish that they had more-frequent trains between terminals
and that shuttle services could drop passengers off at check-in level, but those are my only
complaints about what is otherwise a good airport to use.

I use it fairly frequently and find it simple and spacious, with
stunning architecture to boot. Never have had a problem with long
security wait lines - generally shorter than other major US airports.
If you have to go to concourse B or C, it is annoying to have to use the
train, and customs is sometimes woefully understaffed, but aside from
that I think Denver is one of the best airports in the US.
Denver International Airport review by Guy Senior

Flew in and out a few days ago. International arrivals/immigration has been expanded since I last
flew in, but still took at least 40 minutes to get through. What was frustrating was that it then
took about half an hour for bags to arrive, so all in all well over an hour to get out and this from
Concourse A, which is the nearest and smallest.
Flying out, a different story. No queues at all at the BA check in and no more than 10 minutes
delay at security and less than 5 minutes for the fingerprint test.
Generally, this is a clean and spacious airport - easy to get around and with splendid architecture.

Flew into Denver during the second blizzard, managed to land ok but
waited 1hr 30 mins for luggage to arrive, and had to catch a train to
the luggage belts. Not a great first impression for an Australian, and
luckily an Indian man who lived in Denver showed me where to go,
otherwise I was lost. Used the airport 3 more times in the next 12 days
and found it ok. Probably the best in the US, but very average by world
standards still. Some of the homeland security people were very nice,
and some very, very rude. United check in staff uneducated, and
impossible to deal with, and the police out the front were shocking!
Then the car hire people didn't know the difference between a 4wd and a
front wheel assist.

Transited through Denver concourse B twice in 3 weeks. Always a pleasure to use this airport.
Procedures ran smoothly and staff are always helpful. Plenty of places to pick up a quick snack, a
reasonable meal or a coffee. Gate change announcements are clear and departure/arrival info is
readily available. Gate lounges are comfortable and spacious. Luckily I missed out on the blizzard
induced 3 day shutdown.

I fly through DIA every few month and find the airport to be one the
best in the country. No matter which airline you fly on the check-in is
always fast and efficient. Security can be a bit of a pain as it takes a
long time, but everything else is ok. The automated train reaches the
concourses quickly and all concourses have a nice selection of
restaurants and book stores. Even the immigration process goes by
quickly. Upon arrival from Frankfurt I was greeted by a friendly customs
agent and retrived my baggage with in an hour of my arrival. The only
problem with the airport is the long taxi times and the bumpy departures
and arrivals. Overall, DIA is a very modern and pleasant airport.

I fly frequently through DIA, for work and to visit family. Arrivals
and connections are painless, (other than the 30 minute drive back to
the city for arrivals) but Departures are awful. Security is combined
for all three terminals, and the lines are badly managed - expect to
spend up to an extra two hours on very busy travel days, or an hour on
normal days, waiting for security. Other than the security lines,
everything is fast, efficient, and friendly - even the food leaves
nothing to complain about.

Transited thru Denver three times in a few weeks. Always a pleasure to do so at this airport. Staff
are friendly and efficient, navigation and terminal transfer are easy, flight info is readily
available, gate lounges are comfortable, food concessions are acceptable and there is plenty to keep
one occupied on a longer layover.
