GETTING TO & FROM THE AIRPORT

DEN airport transport

RTD A Line rail connects Denver Airport Station with Denver Union Station; check current service notices before travel.

After security, the Train to the Gates links Jeppesen Terminal with Concourses A, B and C.

Taxis, rideshare, rental cars and shuttles use signed ground-transport areas around Jeppesen Terminal.

⌛

CONNECTION PLANNING

DEN layover guide

For an airside connection, budget the train ride plus the walk from the concourse station to the gate. A city trip needs the A Line in both directions plus a conservative return-security buffer.

▥

BAGS & STORAGE

DEN luggage storage

Confirm any baggage-storage option and its landside location before leaving DEN; Jeppesen Terminal is the central landside building and all concourses are beyond security.

Lounges are distributed across the airside concourses. Check your departure concourse and the return trip to the gate before choosing a lounge.
