About 1 million expected at Denver airport

Traffic is picking up at Denver International Airport ahead of Thanksgiving.

About a million people are expected to pass through the airport this holiday week, with about 152,000 of them traveling on Tuesday. That’s nearly 10,000 more people than on a normal day.

Parking is still available in the garage and outlying parking lots and new screens are providing real-time updates on shuttle bus arrivals.

Meanwhile, the Colorado Springs Airport is offering travelers free parking through the end of the year.
