Blucifer (aka Blue Mustang) is one of the best things about DIA! It's a massive (32 feet tall), yet beautiful sculpture. And a definite conversation starter. Did you know the sculptor was killed when the massive head section fell on him? His children ended up completing the sculpture in his honor.

Nope. ALL HAIL LORD BLUCIFER!

Nah, Blucy is a staple of DIA. She ain't going anywhere, lol.

Shaped like that due to wind. Denver gets some really nasty wind those 40-60 mile per hour gusts will get you

​@@pacmanlives I don't think that's what he means

My Argentine grandpa is curious about the shape as well, because he keeps raising his hand every time they show an aerial shot of the airport

Yeah, it looks like a peace symbol used in Buddhism

@@eliotgarcia21 He knows what he means, lol, he's explaining why it has that shape.

I really miss Stapleton. It was so much better.

It did about 78 million people in 2023 making it the 6th busiest airport in the world.

@@robertmustell your right I ment to say 100 million not one.

I bet half of them are lizard people too!

LOL That is hilarious 😆

And plan to be there a solid 2 hours before your flight

Despite the long lines for security at DEN/DIA, they are very efficient and move surprisingly fast. I recently flew DEN to LAX and back. When I got to DEN (via the train from downtown Denver), the line for security was so long it snaked around towards baggage claim. There were at least 300 people ahead of me. Nonetheless, I waited no more than 12 minutes before it was my turn to go through security. A minute or two later I was on the train heading to my concourse. My experience at LAX couldn't have been more different. When I arrived at the terminal for my airline at LAX (after fighting traffic) there were maybe two dozen people ahead of me in the security line. Even so, it took a good 45 minutes for security to get through those 24 people ahead of me! I'll take the long, yet efficient, security lines at DEN over the short, chaotic, and inefficient lines at LAX any day!

For now yes, but the terminal has been under construction for years and they're working on adding more security checkpoints. It stalled out for a while and it was just a giant maze, but in the last year or so they've finally started making good progress and we should start seeing some of those new checkpoints within the next year or two. But as someone else pointed out, the lines do move quick, they just stretch on forever.

It's definitely controversial, but it means they built the airport so it could accommodate those *LONG* runways and also is not a noise pollution problem because the airport is so far away from the center of town.

Or DIA’s failed baggage system.

ORD is also a United hub (Chicago is where United has its HQ) as is DEN. Terminal B (which is the one for United) is long but has a good layout.

DIA currently has six, the longest of which is the longest commercially used runway in North America at 16,000 feet long. The airport is designed to accommodate 11 runways total.

Thanks for the kind words!

There are tons of conspiracy theories about DEN.

It is the most effective way to lay out the runways.

That symbol far predates the German guy with the tiny moustache. It's long been a symbol of good fortune in Hindu and Buddhist cultures. In fact, the name commonly associated with the symbol is not German, but Sanskrit.

DEN is my home airport, and I have been to Changi recently. The actual terminals at Changi were fine, but I wouldn't say that they really stand apart compared to any of the more recent airports in the USA. The Jeppesen Terminal and many gate areas at DEN are a mess right now with the construction projects, but the areas that have been completed are generally slightly nicer than the equivalents I saw at Changi. Where Changi absolutely crushes any US airport is the Jewel. You have a real supermarket with normal-ish prices, not the limited selection and high prices you always see in US airport concessions. You have a beautiful greenhouse and waterfall. You have tons of great food options, including Singapore and other Asian cuisine and western cuisine too, with reasonable prices. You have a movie theater! The reality is that DEN probably wouldn't be able to make most of these amenities work because it overwhelmingly serves domestic flights. The Jewel works because many, many people have multi-hour connections in Changi on long-haul international flights, which makes a mall and amenities a natural fit. DEN has a lot of connecting traffic, but it is overwhelmingly shorter connections that are deliberately timed as part of flight banks. That's convenient if you want to get to your destination quicker (few people are going to want a 4 hour connection between domestic flights if they can avoid it) but it limits the sort of airport amenities that make sense financially.

@@BrianCairns different airports function differently based on their purpose, many airports like DXB, Chang-e, Swiss Airport, etc., all offer a wider customer experience rather than just being a terminal to wait for flights, I've been to LAX, JFK, DFW, it's just not close to having a great appeal to customer experience. Even Narita and Haneda just had so many gimmicks within the aiport to make your day super fun

singapore airport has good hotels like the crowne plaza and ambassador transit hotel

and bangalore airport has a lot of life which is like singapore changi

Having been to DIA and Hartsfield, the width of the alleys between concourses at DIA substantially larger than at Hartsfield of the United terminal at Chicago-O'Hare. I've been on American flights that could not push back from gates on Concourse T, because of traffic taxiing on the alley between T and A. That can't happen at DIA, because of the increased space. Despite United being headquartered in downtown Chicago, it's adding more seats and flights at DIA than at ORD.

What do you want to talk about?

@@PragmaNetwork Sir I follow your videos all the time but I noticed one thing that your videos are not getting enough views because your content is very good I want to give you some information about how to make your videos reach people if you are interested Give your email or whatsapp number and we will discuss details there
