Flying United nonstop from Denver to any of the Hawaiian Islands they serve is almost always more expensive then taking a connecting flight through LAX or SFO. Yes, they charge a premium for the convenience of taking a nonstop flight. One big difference between DEN-Hawaii nonstop and DEN-California...

Given the the loss of Amazon business and the US tariff wars with China (and soon, the EU), it is not a surprise that FedEx is adjusting their fleet.

You are correct I believe. Key LIme Air (dba Denver Air Connection) recently received code share approval with United at DEN.

I am not a fan of the current airport director, Kim Day. As a number of posters have mentioned, she and her staff have not focused on the concourse needs and updates until recently.
