On Tuesday night, the Denver City Council unanimously approved an amendment granting United Airlines access to 24 more gates at Denver International Airport. “It’s an unbelievable day for United and for Denver,” said Steve Jaquith , vice president of the United Airlines’ Denver branch. Jaquith said that the expansion will allow United, which currently provides 164 nonstop destinations from DIA, to ramp up their service to more destinations. “Our 7,000 employees worked tirelessly for this day to be able to provide more service,” he said.
