Love this airport . Free-wifi. Easy access between gates & transfers. Plenty of comfortable seats & choices of places to eat. Public transport to downtown Denver Union Station is an easy commute.

Surprise: Airline ticketing check-in is on level 6. However the rental car bus drops you off on ground floor (which is level 5!) So just go up the escalator or elevator to level 6 to check in!

The Demon Horse, masonic symbols, and creepy murals - conspiracy theorists say these point to a large, underground bunker built beneath DIA to protect the world's elite when the world ends. Yep. Read more

Billie Hawkins

If you Uber here, & already checked in, have them drop off United West side, 1st door (no matter what airline you need). You can take the escalator directly to TSA or Normal Security. Less walking!

Monika McMahon

Want really tasty, farm-to-table food that's also quick? Go to concourse C and eat at Root Down. You won't be disappointed. Their breakfast , lunch , dinner and cocktails are amazing.

Jacob Ford

Concourse C has these pristine vaguely Japanese gardens that seem cruise shippishly manicured by underpaid men. Yet there is no entrance onto them whatsoever. Add it to the list of DEN conspiracies.

Mark Stoddard

ROOT DOWN in Terminal C is one of the best airport cocktail bars/restaurants in the country . Very well worth visiting from Terminals A or B to experience...

Claire Luhman

DIA can be a bit of a monster to tackle the first time traveling through it as it is quite large. It has an interesting history and is always a nice experience even for those who fear planes , like me.

Michael Tiffany

Go to Que Bueno, near Gate B52, and order the chile relleno . Have then add some barbacoa and guacamole to the top. This is some of the best airport food in America.

Ljubo Filipović

The best US airport according to the WSJ. 2nd biggest in the World. Architectural masterpiece. Right now undergoing big changes for the passengers’ best experience.

Dionne Waugh

Root Down in the C Concourse is the best airport restaurant ever! The food is amazing and worth the detour from the other concourses. If you go for breakfast get the burrito

Bradley Shive

My favorite airport in the nation. Well laid out, efficient and intuitive train system, plenty of local food options and covered parking onsite...

April Payne

If you will be here for awhile, try some of the local cuisine located in each terminal. My favorites are Snarfs for a sandwich (A gates) or Root Down (C gates) for a burger !

Jacob Ford

All train tunnels toward Concourse C are lined with pinwheels. Tunnels toward the Terminal are lined with hatchets. WITH HATCHETS. Sit in the very back or front of any train to get the best view .

Tim Jackson

Welcome to nation's third busiest airport ; seventh busiest in world. When riding the train to terminal, expect to hear a message from Mayor Michael Hancock. I've talked to him three times this week.

Scott Byerly

Hunkering for your starbucks craving? There's only two in the entire airport ; both in concourse B . One is by B90 at the very end and the other just before the stairs to the express jets.

glenn letham

Welcome to DIA! There's a hidden new Belgium bar here but it's a hike ! Happy hunting... Into maps & geo? Follow @gletham on Twitter or Instagram! Cheers

Top Dining Options: Lounge 5280 & New Belgium Hub, Terminal B ; Chef Jimmy's Bistro & Spirits , Terminal A; Rock Bottom Restaurant & Brewery , Terminal C; Boulder Beer Tap House , Jeppesen Terminal. Read more

Cooper Smith

Skip the main security in the center of the terminal and walk the bridge to Concourse A, it's always half the length/time. If you're flying out of B or C, you can easily grab the train from here

Jacob Ford

Each concourse has a huge sculptural centerpiece. Terminal A: massive train tracks . B: big metal arch. C: beautiful manicured vaguely Japanese gardens that you can't walk in and Bill Daniels’s jet.

Brea Simpson

They tried for whimsical character and instead they got demon horses, nazis wearing gas masks, giant KKK looking things and murals of dead children. Nice, Denver. Real nice.

Todd Weisrock

Google "Denver airport conspiracy theory" and be engrossed while you wait for your flight . Remember, the barbed wire is positioned to keep you IN! Don't miss the freaky murals .

Leonardo De La Rocha

Concourse C breakfast hack: Coming off the escalators make a quick left and hit up La Casita for a small side of their green chile . Pour over fries at McD's or breakfast bowl from Villa Pizza .

glenn letham

If you have time to kill and wanna eat go to the very end of B gates 80s... And hit the New Belgium bar , its great!! Cheers

Ian Cairns

Udi's just opened in Terminal B near B25(ish). Local company, great healthy food including gluten-free, salads you want to eat, even a quinoa option. Plus the best bread from a chain in Denver. :)

Tara Cunningham

On your way out if you have some extra time, go to Gate C and eat at Root Down. Awesome food, cool decor, great craft beer selection , and they have outlets EVERYWHERE!

Tim Jackson

Use the TSE row to checkin through security, if possible. It can reduce wait times dramatically. If Casey T Duncan is close by, give him a pass through too.

Lufthansa

Fun fact about the Denver International Airport : The iconic roof of the Jeppesen Terminal is made from Teflon-coated fiberglass that is as thin as a credit card!

J Logan

TSA really has their act together overall here - this is my home airport and the flow is always better than an average airport of equivalent size. They are especially good today as there is no at all.

Eliza Weeks

GORGEOUS views ! and a great airport . It's so easy to navigate with a variety of different food and shopping options! Flying into Denver is always a wonderful experience.

Jenn

This is one of my favorite airports - easy to get in and out, and the views of the mountains are so picturesque! Free Wifi throughout the airport , too!!

Jen Goode

There are 3 security line options regardless of airline : north, south & the bridge to concourse A (north end). Each has direct access to the train which will quickly take you to any of the concourses.

Mohammad Fakhouri

Great big airport with lots of food options, Terminals have a connectingTrain so I would get here early. Well organized rental cars a shuttle service. Security lines are crazy long so allow time

Stephen Davis

Cool airport with so much art and little widgets stuck here and there. There is construction so be prepared on pickup and dropoff. Quite easy to get in and out. Baggage usually pretty quick.

Casey Duncan

Checked baggage can have a pretty rough ride. Stuff folded socks in things like shoes and caps to protect their form.

Merredith Branscombe

This helps guys not at all, but the women's room on the baggage-claim/security level -- East Side-- is pretty amazing. Glass tiles, huge private stalls... Makes me giggle nearly every time I visit.

Gregg Pullano

One of the biggest airports in the United States , DIA offers lots of great amenities and creature comforts. Take advantage if you're connecting on United, Frontier or Southwest.

Jason Jokerst

Welcome to Denver! State of the art and very large airport . Huge selection of food, beer , coffee , gifts , etc. Always busy. Great airport to be at if you have a layover

David Cushing

This is obviously an impressive facility but really it's design's priority was to move large amounts of people. I see very little consideration of the individual traveler's experience.

Dustin Slade

Big airport long and stretched out so give yourself enough time to get around here. Good restaurants while you wait. Few nice bars .

Mario Moya

It’s huge but it’s a good airport . Good places to eat and lots of electric bands to facilitate walking long distances. It also has a good train system which is great for trips that require stops

🌻Teresa

I like this airport . Easy to get around. Friendly people work here. Lots of coffee and food places. Excellent toy store . Bronco stuff!

Una Schade

Concourse A is the best to fly out of because Security is fastest! Blue Sky Bar is a good place by gate A35 to get a refreshing drink and watch football while waiting.

Allyson Mackenzie

Hey, you know when you’re walking around a packed terminal and you just decide to stop right in front of everyone behind you like an absent-minded potato ? Don’t be an absent-minded potato .

Nishant Patel

A line train to Union Station is wonderful. Good food choices although Chick Fil A is always packed! Surprising they don’t have stairs at most of the places, just escalators. Clear+pre✔️ for the win.

Aolani Smythe

Love #DEN ... Biggest airport in the USA and the coolest among all international USA flights ... I love Denver International Airport .... Happy flying indeed ♥

Sean Miller

Great airport to fly through when making a connection. There are plenty of places to eat and shop while waiting for your next flight .

Fergs

When the apocalypse begins, please make you way to concourse D with 1000 gold sovereigns, four pints of your blood type and at least two wives. Dont forget the passphrase that was assigned to you at.

JD Malone

If 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 .

Peter Klemp

Want to help your luggage not get broken/damaged? The people trying to grip your bag to load it on the plane , sometimes lose their grip because of the added frilly items tied around the handle.
