Itinerary
Day 1
Arrival day transfer from Denver International Airport (DEN) into downtown Denver (example drop-off: The Brown Palace Hotel). Times below are sample scheduling — your confirmed pickup time will match your booked start time.
Pre-trip confirmation & accessibility checklist (phone/email)
Confirm pickup details with Event and Airport Transportation, LLC: pickup address, flight number, any mobility or special assistance needs, and preferred contact method. This 15-minute check ensures the driver is prepared and assigned the right vehicle (Sprinter van).
Tips from local experts:
- Ask the company to note any mobility aids (wheelchair, walker) and whether you need ramp assistance — Sprinter vans typically support step-in assistance but request a ramp/board if needed.
- If you use a hearing aid or assistive device, ask for the driver's preferred communication method (phone call, text) and confirm they'll wait at the baggage claim door.
- If traveling May (spring), mornings can be cool — request an extra blanket in advance for a comfortable ride.
Flight arrival + collect baggage — Jeppesen Terminal (DEN)
Deplane and collect checked luggage at the Jeppesen Terminal baggage claim. Your driver will monitor your flight and join you at the agreed baggage claim door with a name sign.
Tips from local experts:
- Request the driver to meet you at the specific baggage claim carousel shown on airport monitors — Jeppesen Terminal has clear signage and staff to assist with directions.
- Elevators and ramps: Jeppesen Terminal baggage claim areas have step-free access; ask airline staff for assistance if your mobility device needs help to the baggage belt.
- If your flight is delayed, notify the operator via the confirmed phone number — drivers typically have buffer time but long delays may require re-coordination.
Meet driver & load luggage — outside baggage claim/ground transportation area
Driver will greet you just outside the baggage claim / curb (ground transportation area) with a clear name sign and assist with your luggage and boarding the Sprinter van.
Tips from local experts:
- Ask the driver to position the van as close to the curb as airport rules allow for minimal walking; they can help move luggage directly from the carousel to the vehicle.
- For seniors who prefer minimal steps, request the driver to lower the van's step or deploy a portable step/board; confirm this when you pre-confirm accessibility needs.
- Keep essential items (medication, phone, travel documents) in a small, easy-to-access bag and hand that to the driver last so it's with you when you step out.
Sprinter van transfer to downtown Denver (door-to-door)
Comfortable, climate-controlled Sprinter van transfer to downtown Denver. Transit time typically 30–45 minutes depending on traffic. Driver provides steady driving and can stop once en-route for restroom/comfort on request (bookable extra).
Tips from local experts:
- Traffic note (spring): take I‑70/I‑25 depending on route — ask driver to use the quietest route if you prefer a smooth, steady ride.
- If you need a brief restroom or stretch stop, request an 'en-route stop' when booking (this is a paid extra) — a short stop at Union Station is convenient and senior-friendly.
- Keep seatbelt fastened and ask the driver to set cabin temperature slightly higher on cool May days; Sprinter vans are roomy and allow easy leg positioning for comfort.
Optional short en-route stop — Union Station (restroom & café)
If requested during booking (bookable extra), driver can stop at Denver Union Station for a short 10–20 minute break — clean restrooms, seating, and an accessible entrance make this a comfortable pause before final drop-off.
Tips from local experts:
- Union Station has step-free entrances and accessible restrooms; ask the driver to pull up to the main plaza entrance for minimal walking.
- Grab a seat at Avanti Food & Beverage (multiple vendors) for a quick drink — order at the counter and bring it back to the van if you prefer to remain seated.
- If you use a mobility device, notify the driver so they can choose the most accessible curbside unloading area (mainly the 17th Street Plaza entrance).
Hotel drop-off & assistance with luggage (example: The Brown Palace)
Driver assists with luggage curbside and escorts you to the hotel entrance if requested. Driver can wait briefly while you check in (confirm waiting time with operator).
Tips from local experts:
- The Brown Palace has a step-free main entrance and bellstaff who can help with check-in and luggage — ask your driver to coordinate with hotel staff for a smooth handoff.
- If you need ground-floor or elevator access, call the hotel ahead and request an accessible room; provide your confirmation to the driver so they can inform bell services.
- Confirm with the driver beforehand whether waiting time is included; for longer check-in times, drivers may need to leave and return — keep the driver's phone number handy.
