Verified travelerFlew with Frontier-Jul 2026
Give yourself plenty of layover time if you have a connecting flight
AngieFlew with Southwest-Jun 2026
Pay a little more and go with American or United. Also, fly earlier in the day. It seems that night flights have the crankiest crews on Southwest.
ToddFlew with United Airlines-Jul 2026
Be prepared for turbulence when entering Denver. Also be prepared for a flight delay. The DEN airport has children’s play areas!!
TamaraFlew with Southwest-Jul 2026
Southwest fare restrictions have become much more strict. Make sure you read the fine print.
AmberFlew with United Airlines-May 2026
Fly out first thing, get a long layover, and enjoy the United Club breakfast and privacy while you wait; it's worth the extra money
EvanFlew with SkyWest Airlines-Apr 2026
Be ready to hustle once you land in SLC. My connecting flight to Grand junction was practically on the other side of the airport.
Verified travelerFlew with United Airlines-Apr 2026
Try to board as early as possible because United is very selective on enforcing the carry on rules.
AlexanderFlew with Lufthansa-Apr 2026
If you’re checking in luggage make sure u got 1 hour before departure
Verified travelerFlew with Frontier-Jun 2025
Make sure your carry on bag meets the size limit as bin space on plane is limited. Check any bags online in advance to avoid extra charges for using agent at the airport.
Verified travelerFlew with Frontier-Jun 2025
Don't purchase vouchers with connections on the cheaper flights (such as frontier or Spirit), you're bound to have a delay. middle or more expensive airlines are more reliable, comfortable, and have consistent pleasant staff working.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska Airlines-Mar 2025
Alaska Air is very efficient & on-time so allow enough time to get luggage, go thru Customs & Immigration, & long security lines. Terminals in SEA are readily accessible by trains but more signage is needed. Fortunately, Information booths are everywhere & are manned by very helpful staff.
Verified travelerFlew with Air Canada-Apr 2025
All was great would surly book again and recommend Be on the ball and find gate before landing
Verified travelerFlew with Delta-Apr 2025

MohanFlew with Frontier-Oct 2024
Check-in online and ensure your personal item is not big, these guys are a pain to deal with
MartyFlew with Alaska Airlines-Jun 2024

kristenFlew with United Airlines-Jul 2024
weather can cause delays, and pack light if you chose to carry-on

Get TSA PRE and CLEAR. Life will be easy.
JoanneFlew with Air Canada-Apr 2024
It was not clear to me that my Air Canada flight would be handled by United, so I had some uncertainty about check-in. A United employee helped me check in eventually. Check for code-sharing partners.
Verified travelerFlew with Air Canada-Mar 2024
Make sure if you need a wheelchair you have plenty of time to between connecting flights.

FAQs - booking Colorado flights

  • Where is the closest airport if I want to quickly start exploring Colorado’s mountains?

    Colorado is home to many mountains and ski resorts. Booking a flight to Durango via Durango–La Plata County Airport will put you close to the Purgatory Resort. However, it will still be a 44 mi rental car ride to the mountains. A flight to Aspen–Pitkin County Airport will put you near Crested Butte Mountain Resort, and driving to this magnificent resort will take 3h 5m.

  • What is the closest airport to the Rio Grande National Forest?

    Consider booking a flight to Colorado Springs, then renting a car and driving to the Rio Grande National Forest (4h 20m). You can also book a flight to the smaller airport located in the town of Durango (Durango–La Plata County Airport). It’s about a 2h 52m drive from Durango to the national forest. However, flights to Colorado Springs are less expensive and more frequent.

  • Where can I book a flight to Colorado?

    The state has several airports you can arrive in and depart from. The main four hubs are Aspen–Pitkin County Airport, located in the middle of the state; the City of Colorado Springs Municipal Airport in the southern part of the state; Denver International Airport, the most popular and busiest airport in the state; and Durango–La Plata County Airport, which is the best for anyone wanting to travel to the Southwest.

  • What is the best airport to get to Durango, Colorado?

    Durango is on the outskirts of basically everything. You can reach it directly by flying to Durango–La Plata County Airport, but while flights here may be more frequent, they are also more expensive. Consider flying to Albuquerque, NM, via Albuquerque International Sunport (ABQ), and then booking a rental car and driving the 217 mi to Durango. It’s closer and cheaper than flying to either Denver or Pueblo.
