RTD A Train Denver Airport to Downtown Denver Union Station
Ever had a long layover in Denver and wanted to get out of the airport and explore? Anyone who knows Denver knows that the airport is far from downtown - not the old Stapleton Airport anymore.
Opening in April 2016, Denver's RTD "A" Line inaugurated rail service between downtown Denver (Union Station) and Denver International Airport known by locals as DIA. There are 6 stops between DIA and downtown.
A "DAY PASS" is good all day on all lines. Discounted tickets are also available. Click the link below for schedule and fare information:

When I visited Denver last October I took their train from the airport. I stayed downtown Denver so it was very convenient. I’m going again next month in May. I will take the train to my hotel again. Hopefully it won’t be cold. 🥶

Hey I’m wanting to visit there in February so my kids & I can do some snow activities. I’m staying downtown on 15th st, does the train go to any of the mountains where we could do like snow tubing. Or anywhere close where Uber would be cheaper. Thanks I’m advanced 😊

I have not done the walk from A to the Airport Station. As for taking the airport tram from A, I’d say it’s about 5 minutes after you get off the tram at the main terminal to the airport station

@slowdownmoveoversharethero9701 3 года назад

just an FYI you should never ever leave the airport or go outside security checkpoint on a layover. Just because there a train to take you from the airport to the city if the train brakes down or has mecanical issue your basically in trouble

@GregSmith803 3 года назад

That's why you need ample amount of time... Atleast 5 hours minimum

@slowdownmoveoversharethero9701 3 года назад

GregSmith I use to travel in and out of Denver until 2008 when you had a layover no matter if it’s 3 or 7 hour layover just stay put walk around but stay inside security and keep track of time

@nathanieltravis9098 3 года назад

Rtd repairs the trains from tob to bottom every day and they will do a thing called a running brake test and positive train control will stop it if the brakes don't work or if anything doesn't and they use dynamic braking not air brakes like in freight trains
