Facts (Overview)

As globalization continues, the central location of Denver international Airport increases our value as a natural global hubbing point for airline activity. Additionally, as the fifth-busiest airport in North America and the 11th-busiest in the world, Denver will continue to play an important role in the international aviation system in the coming decades.

DEN is served by more than 30 commercial airlines, including regional carriers, which provide more than 1,500 daily flights and offer nonstop service to over 130 destinations worldwide. Much of DEN's success is a direct result of its superior design and its ability to expand to meet the needs of additional passengers. Master Plan Forecasts estimate 25 percent growth in passenger traffic over the upcoming years as the airport continues to attract new carriers and serve as hubs to United Airlines and Frontier. Additionally, with the entrance of Southwest to the market, DEN has been able to entirely offset recent airline industry cuts and struggles to allow costs per enplanement to dramatically fall year after year .
