This is a cute little airport! My partner and I flew in for Labor Day weekend and it was super…read moreeasy. Our home airport is pretty tiny, only six gates, so we are used to small airports. This one is even smaller! It has eight gates total, but no jet bridges. You board and deplane using a ramp and walk on the tarmac. Super cool if you're a plane or airport nerd, and I bet kids love it. It's a bit tougher for people who have mobility issues, but the staff make it work. We landed around 9pm on the Friday of Labor Day weekend. Our flight was full and seemed to contain every person who was incapable of understanding how to use a ramp. It took forever to get off the plane just because so many people were confused. I didn't know it was so hard for able-bodied people to use a ramp but hey, I learned something new this weekend! Exiting was super quick and easy, and because it took so long to deplane the baggage claim was already running when we got there. We got our bags immediately and got picked up by my partner's family. When we flew out, the process was just as easy. We didn't check any bags because we didn't need to. I have Precheck so security was a breeze. My partner barely made it through on time because the standard security line was much longer. I heard people saying they'd never seen it that long before, so I'm chalking it up to being a holiday. Another walk on the tarmac, another ramp, and I was in my seat. Quick and easy. Because we have family in Durango we will likely be flying in and out of this airport a lot, which I have absolutely no issues with. It's a great little airport!

For one of the smallest airports I've ever been to, everyone here has been beyond nice! Kindness &…read morecourtesy must be in the water! From the TSA agents to the American gate agents I cannot believe how unbelievably courteous everyone has been!?! Wish this was the rule & not the exception! Josh at Gate 4 was especially amazing!

LOL. There's nothing wrong with small airports. They have 2 gates but I think 1 is for arrivals…read moreand 1 is for departures. I think is actually pretty COOL even thought there's nothing AMAZING about the place other then it being small and simple. Everyone there was friendly and smiling. They have a little library/lounge area to relax before your flight with a few vending machines, technically it's part of the Zebra's Sports Grill but no one is there just a rest area. You can even borrow a book from their library (which are 2 bookcases with a some good novels) return it after your done or even take it with you on if you want to continue reading it, I guess this is COOL. To get to the rest of the Zebra's Sports Grill you have to exit the terminal area and just walk next door.

Well I actually survived so that's why it got two stars. I guess the review is more inclusive of…read morethe airport and the only airline that seems to fly there - Great Mistakes err Great Lakes. As you'll notice, it's small - and that's fine. They even have a lending library which is a nice touch. However, as Great Mistakes (as they shall be known) is the only carrier you'll notice that they are notorious (moreso than most it seems) for flight delays and arbitrary cancellations. This equals a bit of layover time at Four Corners. They have vending machines for candy, drinks and even a seemingly home made rig for Keurig....however, there are no change machines. Anywhere. So, unless you have some spare singles from a previous venture to a 'gentleman's establishment' you may be a touch SOL on any food or beverage. However, as you'll be most likely flying GM, you may not want to have anything in your stomach anyway.

Had a wonderful arrival here and pleasant flight with Denver Air, but this review is solely for the…read morerude, for lack of a word I'd like to use, woman at the front desk who so desperately wanted to close the desk for the day and snapped at me and my family of 5, including a 2 year old for being "late." WE, my dear, were at a hotel waiting on our airport driver! Who we kept calling, and she wasn't there yet. You said she said we were late?? Where were we?? Tell me. Charged us $400, was late, and arrived with no car seat all for YOU to blame us bc you want to go home. Thanks for ruining the first leg of our long trip home. I'm sure your coworkers know who I'm referring to. You shouldn't work the front desk with that attitude. Maybe it's time to retire, eh? I'm flying into Montrose next time to avoid this witch.

After a whole year has passed, I'm surprised I still remember enough about this place to write my…read morereview...then again, I remember everything about my amazing Telluride trip! With the snow falling & the vacation time quickly approaching, I figured I should get my thoughts out there so there's more than one review for those planning their winter trips. I'm from California so I would consider Long Beach airport tiny but compared to this place, LB airport seems like the Taj Mahal. There are only 2 terminals & 1 security checkpoint so make sure that you arrive there early to get through the line...well maybe not 'international flight' early but a good hour would be good if you have to check-in your bags. Also, the seating at each gate is very minimal so you'll likely be sitting separate from your group or standing. I wouldn't recommend claustrophobic fliers to head here or weak-stomach fliers for that matter because the planes are very small so you feel all the turbulence. It's enough to make you want to close your eyes & breathe in & out of a paper bag. What I appreciated about this airport the most was the friendly staff. Everyone is very helpful & kind, which is a great thing when you fly into an unknown town.

I'm going to give you three stars because you transported me all over Durango. However...You…read moreforced me to write this review. It might not even matter. Your drivers have been so nice to me. We did not have a nice conversation today on the phone. You hung up on me after I apologized about my credit card situation. Which I worked out in less than five minutes. It was a $70 ride and you were going to call the police on me? Seriously? I'm some weirdo tourist. And my mother did not raise me to screw you over. Since I've been here I have shelled out HUNDREDS to your company. HUNDREDS. This is how you treat your customers? Hanging up on them and saying you won't transport me anymore when I have payment right away? I thought people in Durango were different than this. You're shady and I don't get it. Who hangs up on people? Are you 14 years old? My review...DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. They're just straight up NOT NICE PEOPLE when you call. The women answering the phone is not nice. I had different hopes for Durango. Good luck. NEVER AGAIN. -Matt-

And I used to see them running about town, now zero for the last few years. Now, I have never taken this cab. It might have been a good experience. I don't know. But I don't think they exist anymore. Am I wrong? I hope so. So if you can, prove me wrong. But right nowI don't think Durango Cab exists anymore.
