Starting May 1, 2025, United will have nonstop routes from Denver to Rome (FCO). It will be Denver's first-ever nonstop flight to the destination, according to officials.
“I am elated to announce Denver’s first nonstop flight to Rome, a destination Denverites have craved for quite some time,” Denver Mayor Mike Johnston said in a press release. “This will be a direct link between our vibrant city and Italy, one of the most iconic destinations in the world. United’s new nonstop route will both strengthen our global connections and open a wealth of opportunities for tourism, business and cultural exchange.”
On May 15, the airline will also launch flights to Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada (YQR).
