5 hours until my connection out of Denver.
Thank God for the United Club.
Still a zoo, but free food and slightly better accommodations.
Wish i could find a dark spot in here to sleep.

I had a 14 hour layover there once on the way back from SLC. It was NOT enjoyable in the least.

Drink and dick around on your phone. Time flies there

Denver airport is overall pretty nice. 5 hours is a lot, but just grab a bite, watch a movie.

Let me tell you about layover hell. 10 hour delay leaving Melbourne Australia. Missed every flight after that. 8 hours at lax and then to DFW. Finally after 40 hours, back in New Orleans. I wanted to kiss the ground, almost. Haha.

Plenty of time grab an Uber and head to a dispensary.

The west end of concourses A and B have a neat outdoor deck/patio area with a nice view of the mountains. Might be hot af though.

B concourse has a large outdoor seating area if the weather is nice

I spent 4 hours layover in Atlanta once. I'd take Denver over ATL any day.

Man, I feel for you.
Had a 5 hr. + layover in Philly after coming in from Zurich (9 hr. flight), before taking the last leg down to New Orleans.
It was brutal. I think I walked that whole airport from end to end and saw everything/anything of interest just to pass the time...

I chose a 13 hour layover in FRA to stay Star Alliance rather than have a 2 hour layover in ATL.

My worst - eight at Heathrow. Business Class lounge was a madhouse.

I had a 9hr planned layover at DFW once. Took the train to grapevine and enjoyed the day. It was so memorable to my son (13 now) that he still asks if we can plan a long layover everytime we fly through DFW.

Had one of those too. It was great. Took a taxi to Windsor Castle, toured the castle, had lunch in Windsor and got back to Heathrow with plenty of time left to get through security and get to our gate.

The best free layover (which I haven't done) is the Turkish free tour of IST from the airport
I've spent hours eating myself to death in the lounge, but solid alternative.

Going to Hawaii we got stuck in Houston for 10 hours with every other toilet backed up and stinking. Now that's hell.
Denver is great for layovers. What are you bitching about?
