In a move to expand its services, United Airlines has announced a suite of new flights from Denver International Airport (DIA), making travel from the Mile High City to various domestic and international destinations more accessible. Notably, among the new additions, customers can now book tickets for the airport's inaugural nonstop service to Rome, set to commence on May 1. This seasonal route will utilize the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, with operations extending through September 24, as per 9NEWS.
Complementing international travel options, United also revealed the addition of flights to Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada, set for a May 15, 2025, launch. Domestically, flights to Peoria, Ill., will begin in late March, while services to Buffalo, N.Y., Redding, Calif., and Wilmington, N.C., are expected to start before the Memorial Day holiday, ensuring passengers have ample choice for their spring and summer travel plans, as detailed by CBS Colorado.
The addition of these routes not only offers convenience to Denverites but also significantly enhances DIA's international access. Travelers can now reach 32 destinations in 18 countries directly from DIA, with Rome being a particularly celebrated addition to the list. Airlines from DIA currently service other major cities such as Istanbul, Dublin, London, Paris, Zurich, Reykjavik, Munich, Frankfurt, Tokyo, and various locations in Mexico and Central America, as shared by The Denver Post, highlighting the airport’s commitment to expanding its international reach.
The Denver Post further explains that United's commitment to Denver reflects both the growth of the city as an international hub and the ongoing demand for more direct travel options. This is evident in the airline's continued investment in the region, connecting Denver to the world, and fulfilling the desires of travelers seeking to explore, conduct business, or reunite with family without the inconveniences of connecting flights. With these latest flight introductions, United Airlines continues to cement its position as a key player in the Colorado aviation market.
