 +The closest airport to Boulder is [[http://flydenver.com|Denver International Airport (DEN)]], which is approximately 45 miles from Boulder. 
 + 
 +If you do not live near a hub airport, your best option for getting a non-stop flight to Denver is on [[http://www.united.com/|United]], [[http://www.frontierairlines.com/|Frontier]], or [[http://southwest.com/|Southwest airlines]]. 
 + 
 +==== Ground Transportation ==== 
 +There are [[http://www.flydenver.com/gt/index.asp|several options]] to get to Boulder from the airport: 
 + 
 +  * [[http://www.rtd-denver.com/|RTD Bus service]], [[http://www.rtd-denver.com/skyRide_SubHome.shtml|Skyride]] [[http://www3.rtd-denver.com/schedules/getSchedule.action?runboardId=123&routeId=AB&routeType=9&direction=W-Bound&serviceType=3|AB Bus]] is $13 each way. 
 +  * [[http://www.bouldersupershuttle.com/|Boulder Super Shuttle]] is $27 each way or $50 round trip, and drops off at the hotel.

 +Linked are driving directions for taking the [[http://goo.gl/maps/31y05|E-470 Tollway]] ($8), or [[http://goo.gl/maps/DzjX8|I-70]] from the airport to the hotel. The tollroad is quicker and has less traffic than I-70.  Most rental car companies have toll passes in their rental cars so toll charges will be paid through the rental agencies.
