Top tips for finding a cheap flight from Denver to Cancun

  • Check out Frontier Airlines, United Airlines or Volaris Airlines for nonstop flights from Denver Intl (DEN) to Cancun Airport (CUN). If you’re looking to travel with American Airlines, that is also an option with a short layover in either Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW) or Charlotte Douglas (CLT). Most of these flights will take you to Terminal 3 of Cancun Airport (CUN).
  • Denver International Airport is 25 miles away from downtown Denver and is well-connected to the city center by public transportation taking the A line from Union Station. If you prefer taxi services to get to the airport instead, they are also affordable.
  • If you’re looking to get through security quickly, look for the TSA line close to the pedestrian bridge that links the Westin Hotel to Concourse A. This security line tends to be less busy than others in the airport.
  • Denver Airport has plenty of services to keep you entertained once you get through security, including free Wi-Fi, free charging stations for your devices, various nursing rooms and even prayer halls. Be sure to check out the views of the Rockies from Concourse C while you wait to board your flight. Alternatively, check out the United Club East or the Delta Sky Club lounges while you wait for your flight.
  • When flying into Cancun, note that it is extremely tourist-friendly, but this can sometimes be overwhelming when deciding how to get to your next destination. Your best bet is to pre-book a transfer from the airport to your hotel before you travel so that there is someone waiting for you upon arrival, and you can skip the hassle of dealing with it at the airport. A simple search online will return plenty of companies offering this service, which usually costs anywhere from $13-23, depending on whether you choose a shared or a private service.

Left Denver late, then sat on tarmac 30 min after arrival

Everything was good, 20/30 minutes late waiting on a crew member. It’s hard to keep employees. Or serious employees I know. I remember one flight from Houston of Frontiers was almost 18 hours late. And another 4 hours late very poor. But I would rather be late and safe than the on the news. Thank you.

Bought seats on the flight and they were supposed to be 2 and a jumpseat. Plane clearly changed and it was a regular 3 seat row. Asked for a refund and was denied. If I wanted to sit next to someone else I wouldn't have bought the seats..

Lost baggage on my connecting flight. 24 hours later, still no update on my bags.

It’s a cheap airline and I wish if they had better seats.

Seats are cramped and uncomfortable. You have to pay for everything and it is very expensive.

For a busy travel season, everything was clearly marked, correct, and smooth. My favorite travel description is “UNEVENTFUL,” and this trip met the mark!

The flight and crew were fine. When we (several groups) arrived in Norfolk on Sunday we discovered our bags had not arrived. The staff at norfolk airport was less than helpful. Told us our bags wouldn't arrive until Thursday. When asked what happened they said it bags never made it on the plane and it happened all the time. When asked about reimbursement for replacement items the desk agent said we could try to submit receipts online, but they weren't sure we would be reimbursed. I understand this is a low cost airline, but this was really beyond poor customer service.

Got ripped off by chatdeal. For 318 would like my money back. Neal. Did not take flight

Frontier is a no-frills airlines were the focus is low cost. You get basic service so don't set your expectations high. Watch out thought because this airline, like a few others, will try to nickel and dime you.
