With the holiday season taking off, Denver International Airport's 'Quiet Airport Policy' is being put to the test.

Denver

Denver International Airport has introduced new policies aimed at reducing noise and stress for travelers, particularly during peak holiday travel periods. The airport has limited gate agents to making announcements only at their assigned gates, installed improved loudspeakers, and reduced the frequency of gate announcements by nearly 70%. 

To ensure passengers remain informed, important updates are now delivered through a dedicated app, while legally required safety announcements continue at regular intervals. Airport officials continue to explore additional ways to enhance the travel experience, advising passengers to plan ahead and use airline resources for real-time updates and assistance.
