Oh yea, you guys have an airport lol.

Ever use it btw?

San Diego? Mostly for flying to LAX, then to an international city

However there are some exceptions when you can fly from SAN-NRT, MUC, LHR without flying into LAX

Only used T1 once, pretty much everything else is based in T2

Nice. DEN just got another 40 gates, but they’re already planning for a D concourse. That wouldn’t happen until the mid 2030s though.

Isn’t that only like a 90 mile flight?

Yep. Cruising at 12,000 feet.

As the epic gamers say these days

“L + Ratio”

My question is, what’s even the point of having a flight that short?

Same thing for DEN-COS, but that’s only a 45min drive.

I ask the same question any time I see one of the 8x Daily ORD-MKE flights

Driving is overrated honestly.

For some reason DEN-COS is able to support two airlines, both flying full-size jets (UA usually uses the A319, WN uses a 737-700).

Idk, ease for layovers?

Say I’m flying SAN-TUG. (Well, SAN-LAX-ICN-MNL-TUG.) Why drive two hours to LAX when you can drive to SAN, check-in, go through security, wait for your gate, fly 50 mins, taxi to the gate, and have a 4 hour layover for the flight to ICN depart? It’s simply much faster.
