Moving to DEN in a few months and curious about all things DEN related. How long to get (and where I'd likely be sent before DEN), how long to hold a line, quality of flying, I'll take any information at all regarding it. TIA!

Don't come to F9 for DEN. That is all. Quality of flying? F9 focuses on red eyes and 1-2 day trips.

Half agree, half disagree.

Frontier does have expansion plans in DEN. They did sign a long term agreement with the airport. And the flying in DEN is not bad at all. The only problem is the seniority on the CA side. If you are happy being an FO, there's nothing wrong with DEN

6+ years to be above 50% on the FO list in DEN.

Hell at this point I would still be worried about red eyes had I still been based there.

Let's hope they don't shrink it any further than they already did.

Yeah. I'm assuming Denver grows again in the future. If I'm wrong, then i take back what i said

If QOL matters to you and being in Denver is your priority, F9 is probably not a good choice.

DEN grown is a lie by management in the hopes that people won't jump ship. All the good flying out of DEN is done by crews in other bases (like long leg east coast turns). Otherwise its 6 leg, 2 days or redeyes to FL.

The quality of flying in DEN has probably decreased. It's also constantly changing too.

But the Frontier and DEN did sign a long term agreement for more gates. That's a fact not a lie

The whole airport is a joke. Pena remains a 2 lane nightmare that is packed all day, took me near 30 minutes to make it to I70 at 11am. I guess the city has no plans to add lanes. Lines at concessions are horrid. Trains stop at midnight still and are down to 1 track. No plans to add deice pads. Every other major airport in the country has a streamlined rental car pickup, but DEN has each company run thousands of buses each day wasting huge amounts of diesel. I could go on.

The airport is run by incompetent fools.
