Doing a simulation project, looking for data for DEN
So, I decided to model part of DEN (from check-in to arrival at the concourse) for my final project in a simulation class at school. It's a big project, but I'm on a team of four, so that helps, right? :p
Anyway, I'm looking for data from people who fly out of DEN. When do you get to the airport relative to your flight? How long do you have to wait in line to check bags/print boarding passes/go through security? How long do those activities actually take? Do you use the curbside bag drop? Do you even check in at the airport, or do you check in online and just go directly to security? There are a few other questions that I could ask, plus a bevy of questions that, if I got data from an airline (help, anyone?) I'd love to answer, but I figured I'd start with the above. Thanks in advance with whatever you're able to provide! More detail is always better, and PM works if you don't want to reply in public. |
Happy to help. See my answers below to your questions. Keep in mind I have status on Frontier and United, so the figures represent being able to use the fastest lines, whether they be ticketing, baggage, or security.

Good luck with your project. Where are you going to school? |
Thanks, Stumblefoot. I'm actually at Mines.

Surveys!
So, if anyone wants to provide even more data (thanks!), I've got two surveys to fill out. One is a look at average flying habits; the other looks at per-flight statistics in great detail. The per-flight version has a printable version about the size of a boarding pass that you can print and take with you to the airport, for quicker data collection (though you'll have to enter it online when you get within reach of the Internet).
Thanks in advance for your help. Overall survey: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/...OFZtcEhKNkE6MQ Flight-specific survey: http://ian.im/dia Printable version: http://ian.im/diaprint |
