United will start offering service from Denver International Airport to Fort Collins and Breckenridge.Landline will provide the bus service and travelers checked bags can be directly transferred to the bus.

The Chicago-based airline on March 11 will start offering three-times-a-day bus service from its Denver International Airport hub to Breckenridge, Colorado and four-times-a-day to Fort Collins on April 1. Checked bags — and skis — will be transferred directly to the bus, provided by Landline, which will depart from a gate at the airport. Landline says seating capacity will be limited because of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Travelers "don't just go to Denver," said Ankit Gupta, United's vice president of network and schedule planning. "They actually want to ski and go to all these tourist destinations." Gupta said the idea is to capture demand for travelers visiting areas within a roughly 100-mile radius of Denver and remove the stress of driving from the airport.
