The couple of times I've parked at DEN in this situation I seem to end up a long way from where I needed to be (and am more used to picking up UA fliers with checked baggage in any case).
My pick-up-ee will not have any checked luggage.
Can someone give me a primer on where to go and how in order most easily park and then with the least confusing walk get to and from that escalator for arriving pax? Short-term/pricier is fine; I don't expect to get there but about 30 minutes ahead of flight arrival.
THe 'Super Short Term" parking is on the arrivals level (level 4) on the left hand side as you come in. Follow signs for 'arrivals' on the West side, stay to the left as you enter the structure, and it will be on your left. $2/hour, I think. Park there (West side is slightly closer, given that the escalator from the train is on that side of the main atrium), walk across to terminal (maybe 50 yards), inside, up 1 escalator (into Baggage Claim) - then out to the middle to the fountains. Easy-peasy.
