Cheap Flights to Denver: Book Airline Tickets

Denver's airport lies on the plains northeast of the city, roughly 25 miles from downtown, so ground transport time matters.

Airports

DEN · Denver International
Sits roughly 25 miles northeast of downtown, with a commuter rail line to Union Station.

Best time to go

Ski season (roughly late November through April) and summer are the busiest periods. Winter storms can disrupt flights, and spring snow is not unusual.

Getting around

Travel notes

If you are heading to a ski area, allow extra time on mountain roads in winter, and watch the forecast before travel day.
