I am never heard of it about DEN in 2006. If WN does very well for first day to DEN on January 3, 2006. Then, WN will expanding for more new service in the future for connecting to LAX, SAN, OAK, SEA, ABQ, HOU, BWI, BNA, TPA< MCO, FLL and anywhere else for connecting at DEN. May I suggest ask you question about DEN does have with baggage system? Thanks!

Be advised, if you've never been to Denver, the airport is horrible, the baggage system never works, we're buried in snow six months of the year, and the city is boring with few activities for tourists.

I don't, but my daughter does. We were there last December, and had to catch a flight DEN-IAH to connect with a LH FC flight to FRA. I was expecting a lot of hassle, but the security lines were very swift (and you can check on line for the current status in real time), the airport was large and clean, and we had no trouble at all getting in and out. And no snow, either.
As far as tourist things go, that very much depends on what you want. I haven't been to LAS in years because it bores me. The type of person who thinks Atlantic City or Las Vegas in really cool might very well be unexcited with Denver. Different strokes and all that.

I agree with Daze. Denver sucks, airport sucks, people are rude, nothing to do, it's not mountainous, but flat flat flat and we have nothing but immigrants, flies, and wild buffalo that will stampede and kill small children without a moment's notice.. try Salt Lake, they seem to have nice people, mountains, and a lack of stampeding buffaloes..
