Denver Airport

Not Verified | I cannot find the words to express how your airport is the worst airport by far that I have travelled in over 50 years of travel throughout the world, including the 3rd world. Much of it is because the TSA are unable to figure out the resources needed to allow passengers to get through without having to stand in line for 2 hours or more. All of the airport management and staff should be utterly ashamed of yourselves. Also, who designed your airport, an insane madman? A clown chimpanzee could do better. Up an escalator only to go down another escalator and then walk all the way around the airport back almost to where we entered to find where the security line starts. Couldn’t someone have directed us to the beginning of the security line? I had to leave litter because no one thought to leave trash bins anywhere or provide cups of water to people passing out in line. How many people have stood in line only to miss their flight. How many people has all this saved over 20 years? You wouldn’t even let me have a drink of water after getting though security parched. You took it off me before I could have a drink. How in God’s name does that help? Oh and can’t you figure out a way to test an old man’s belt without having to take it off and have his trousers fall down in front of everyone. Where is your sense dummies? I am 62 and I can see no alternative but to say I am disabled in order to get assistance and avoid standing in a TSA line that winds all the way around your horrible airport. Absolutely terrible, I can barely walk now I am home. Zero IQ Clowns.

Not Verified | Very nostalgic airport to me. Easy to get to baggage and train. On the way home on a Sunday, long security line but it moved fast. I dropped my hat and people passed it back to me! Terminal felt congested. Better food on concourses. Love the red eyed blue horse statue.

Not Verified | Most inefficient airport in the country. I fly out of here all the time, and it gets worse everyone I come. Poorly staffed, long security lines, not enough parking, no good, healthy food options in the terminal. Feeling increasingly like a third-world airport descending into chaos.

✅ Trip Verified | This is the most incompetent airport I've ever been to. If you can avoid departing from Denver, or scheduling a connecting flight through Denver, do it at all costs! Our gates were changed 10+ times and delayed by several hours. I'm still here and worry I'll never escape. Psychically hostile walkways create a sense of unendingly escalating chaos. You are an ant when you are in Denver and the petulant automated text alert systems that notify you of flight rescheduling are your queen. There are no human beings here. Anyone you complain to will be powerless to help or even alter the course of your journey and your inevitable negative emotional reactions to your circumstances will be carefully channelled into the pedestrian collider/retail corridor. We hate you, human. Welcome to Denver International Airport.

Not Verified | Worst airport ever and I have traveled extensively worldwide. At the drop off there were no signs to check-in. For all of terminal A there were only two fast food restaurants and little or no place to sit. Horrible. One star.

Not Verified | This airport is awful, just like the city it serves. No pride always broken. Parking is a nightmare. Passenger transportation is horrible. This airport is why people fly private jets. The management here has turned a first class facility into a turd. They must never fly out of here.

✅ Trip Verified | We flew into Denver for a lay over. My husband got sick and had to go to the ER. After some very unhelpful people and getting the gate doors shut on us for a flight home we were put on standby for the next flight the same day. Mind you we were on standby because they said we missed our flight. We did not! We were told to come back at 6 and they would be able to see if we were on standby still. After explaining our situation and I was upset about it. A supervisor Eric and a one of your employees LauraBeth were very helpful and got us on the flight. Sadly we did not get to California but made it home and it was because of those 2 employees. Non of the other employees were helpful. This was my very first flight. I am over 40 and was anxious enough and then having my husband in the er and then being told we "missed" our first flight and being put on standby. I was a mess. I just wanted to get back. Again thank you Eric and Laura Beth for your help and understanding.

Not Verified | This is my third time going to this airport in a month. Fix the signage and please make it clear. The departure line was past the baggage claim. At least have someone flag the people who will be late for their flights. Baggage claim and passenger pickup is the worst. Leave four hours before hand when going on a domestic flight. I fly around the world and I’m sad I have to use this airport.

Not Verified | My husband went through regular security and beat me (thru TSA Pre) to the gate. I followed a sign down an escalator that had a TSA Pre arrow. At the bottom, the line was at least 150 people long. After more than 10 minutes an agent came walking down the line saying “this line is for TSA & CLEAR - you must have both.” (Mind you there was not the word CLEAR anywhere so far.) She directed me out into the luggage claim area where the TSA line wrapped around at least 3 carousels. When I finally got to the roped off lines in the actual TSA area, the first line I was in AND the TSA Pre line came together and broke off into their own lines. Is DEN really not prepared for this many people every day? My husband, on the other had, gives his experience an A+. 3rd in line on the upper level security and comfortably sitting at our gate when I arrived sweaty & frazzled!

✅ Trip Verified | Awful! Slow security lines. Dirty conditions. Poor, poor signage! Dirty tram. Poor food selection! And if you do find a place, absolutely lousy service. Never want to be cursed with this airport again!
