This is a review about a trainline that runs from DIA to Union Station in downtown Denver and while…read moreit isn't fancy, it's super convenient. Affordable, too. There are a few stops along the way, but the big benefit is the roughly 30-45 minute trip costs $11 (as of August 2025.) That's a lot quicker and less expensive than a taxi, rideshare or a rental car (and who wants to try and park anyway?) Plus, depending where you're staying and where you are going, you can not only walk around downtown and its nearby neighborhoods, but you can also take the light rail and other mass transportation to other locations. The trains leave about every half hour. Please make sure to purchase a ticket because employees will walk through and ask for it.

I was here recently for a layover (I've also flown in and out of…read morethis airport previously) and just concourse C felt like it has tons of dining and shopping options. I think one of the reasons why I feel so massive is that it seems like it has connecting flights to so many different locations. Which makes sense since Denver is geographically centralized. But with so many connections, there will inevitably be some delays - which I've experienced at this airport a few times as well. But overall, the facilities feel clean and spacious. Lots of outlets and comfortable seating options.

Terminal C doesn't have the best food options in Denver Airport (IMHO, that would go to Terminal…read moreA), but it is certainly very spacious and clean, with friendly staff who can point me to the right ways. I generally fly in here through Southwest, usually enroute to another city (generally on the East Coast). I stayed overnight in Terminal C when I tried to go find a spot at the rest station in Terminal A, which ended up being completely packed, and a bunch of travelers sleeping on the floor. I ended up returning to Terminal C, where at least there are spacious couches and charging stations. The problem though is that it's brightly lit, there's cleaning staff that cleans after hours, and there are still noisy people. I didn't sleep a wink, and gave up around 5am when travelers started flooding the gates for their redeye flights, and I had to go catch mine anyway.

I can't remember if I have ever had a layover in Denver International Airport (DEN) before but I…read morenow understand why my boss always prefer to do her connection here! The airport is clean, open and spacious with plenty of seats with outlets. It is United Airlines' major hub and one of my preferred airline. My first leg landed in Terminal A and my connecting flight departs at Terminal B. The train that connects to terminals comes frequently but it's a good walk. Although there are moving walkways throughout the airport, it can take up to 25 minutes to go from Terminal A to B depending on your assigned gate number. Keep that in mind if you have a short connection. I wouldn't spend too much time at the lounge or restaurant. I happened to have a 3 hour layover and able to take my time at the Capital One Lounge (I wrote a separate review for the lounge.) before my next flight. There are so many shops, food, and nice restaurants at DEN. You wouldn't be bored if you have time to kill or flight delayed. I'll definitely go out of my way to make a connection at DEN in the future.

Having the the expanded and upgraded retail and food options has made this a better Terminal at…read moreDEN. It is still not as good as Terminal B, but we need to fly different airlines for different destinations. I will always take a non-stop flight option over a trip with a connecting flight. I have missed events at my destination, even with flying a day earlier than required, when a connection fails due to weather, computer failures in route management or anything else, like lack of available crew at the connection location. This has happened to me in the last 5 years and I will not take such a chance again. One problem that continues at all of the DEN Terminals, is lack of repairs and maintenance in every restroom I have used for as many years as I can remember. It is not so across the country. In just his past year, I have found that both DTW (Detroit) and BDL (Hartford CT) have made this care for travelers and staff, a priority. I want DEN to do so too. In the meantime, use all the new food options, know that the misleading ads for Olive and Finch, a Denver favorite, which makes it appear that there is a real location near the high number gates at Termina A, is merely a fixed kiosk with a self serve grocery store sales station to check yourself out. I saw nothing of interest to buy. If your gate is that far out, buy before you get there. The escalator hub and the lower numbered gates have far more to offer. We used Einstein Bagels and Caribou Coffee and carried our purchases out to the gate on our most recent trip.

Make sure you give yourself time to make it to the Terminal, as you will have to take the tram from the main building where you check in and go through security.

When arriving at DEN, you will exit the airplane into one of the three Concourses listed as A, B, or C. I arrived on Southwest in Concourse C. I made sure to make use of two of those long, horizontal travelators (moving walkways). Then took the escalators down twice to get to the train. Took the train to the Terminal and then took the escalators up twice to get me to the Baggage Claim area. On the plane we were told our luggage would be at Carousel 9, but without notice, they switched it to Carousel 7. A nice man told me there was a switch and my bag was one of four left on the stopped carousel. After retrieving my bags, I had to take the escalators down to get to the Arrivals pick-up area. It is quite confusing! It's difficult to decide whether or not I am a fan of those white pointy canopies or not. From the inside, I couldn't understand the aesthetics. Reminds me of the circus' big top, but with many mini-tops! Those canvas tops represent two things: the snow-capped mountains and the Native American tepees. Elrey Borge Jeppesen was an aviator who set standards for safety in the early days. There's an exhibit located on level 6 at the north end of the terminal. I missed finding it! In one of my TSA pictures, to the left of the American Flag, there's a statue, I think that is where I should have gone. Didn't realize it until I got home and looked closely at my pictures. Jeppesen moved from Salt Lake City to Denver in 1941. He is an important figure in the Colorado aviation history. According to the internet, there are 6 levels in this terminal. As I wandered, it only felt like 3 levels. I was in shock with how crowded TSA was at 9AM on the floor below where I entered after being dropped off. You can get a good view of both sides, North & South. Thanks to my son, he told me I could go to "The Bridge". I stayed on the entrance level and walked over to the bridge and eased my way through the very short TSA Checkpoint lines. Yay!! In going this way, I was already at Concourse A. I only needed to take the Train past Concourse B to Concourse C where my gate was. If you read this and it is helpful for you when you leave Denver, you're welcome! I'm one of those odd people who wants to explore the airport rather than solely use it for travel. I arrived at the airport early for my flight home so I could see the shops! The plane was beginning the boarding process when I arrived at Concourse C! I just about took too long meandering!

If you are not familiar with Tattered Cover, the chain is local to Denver and is an institution. It has a proud history and some really great locations. If you have not made a trip to the LoDo location do yourself a favor and make sure to check it out. When I arrived back in the mid-2000's, Tattered Cover was hot. It has since expanded and I was pleasantly surprised to see it at Denver International Airport - and in all three Terminals. This Tattered Cover is in Terminal A right in the main area. While it is nothing like the stand-alone stores, they still have a few familiar elements like the Tattered Cover Recommends section. The store has a fairly small footprint but there is a wide-selection of airport reads. Overall, solidly above average in comparison to the typical airport bookstore. Plus, it gets point to the nostalgia-factor since I don't get to hang out at their actual stores these days.
