DENVER — Three new concessionaires are now open for hungry travelers at Denver's airport.

The three new food businesses are open on Concourse A, near Gate A20, from 7 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. with expanded hours coming soon, the airport said.

The new businesses will help serve passengers at one of the busiest airports in the world.

DIA airport achieved its highest-ever position in 2021 and 2022 when the airport ranked as both the third-busiest airport in the United States and the world.
