Denver International Airport Will Add Outdoor Patios For Travelers
DENVER (CBS4) – Passengers and aviation enthusiasts rejoice! Soon, there will be four new outdoor patios for travelers to enjoy. The patios are part of DEN’s gate expansion project. B Concourse will get two patios, one on the east side and one on the west side. A Concourse will see one patio on the west side, and C Concourse will get a patio on the east side. All patios will be past the security checkpoint and only available to ticketed passengers. (denver.cbslocal.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
This is the kind of thing that you dont know is great until you have been to one. Flying out of GSP the other day we took advantage of thiers to sip our coffee in the sunshine and listen to jets taxi and takeoff. More airports should consider this inside of security!
Why only inside security. If they put one outside of security for the public, I'd go just to watch planes or have a place to sit and wait if I'm meeting someone at the airport. I recall both ORD & MDW having outside observation decks years ago. Not patios per se, but they had telescope you would put a quarter in. A patio sounds great.
Perhaps because having it outside security would encourage people to "hang out" at the airport - a potential security risk.
"Potential security risks" are ruining our lives. It's time to stop being afraid and just go about our business. Otherwise, terror wins and we lose.
Use GSP every so often.
Thank god the construction is almost over. As regional airports go, its pretty good.

The MIA hotel has (had) an open area at the top of their hotel. It was setup as a walking/jogging track, and it really was awesome to go up and do laps before beginning the trudge of air travel. Watching planes coming and going is relaxing. So many airports try to block views of the airport activity.
Denver has a beautiful airport, and should show it off. The airport where I grew up had an 'observation deck' that stretched across the entire front facing the apron, and it was so interesting to watch the planes coming and going when I was with my dad when he was working as a security guard. There were a few kids like me that hung out there, and broke in to the pay toilets, and helped people with their luggage. Memories...
