You Won't Believe How Many People Keep This Mile-High City Running (Literally!)
Denver International Airport, also known as DIA (because saying the whole thing every time is a mouthful), is a beast of an airport. It's massive, it's busy, and let's be honest, it's a little...well, unique. But have you ever stopped to wonder just how many people it takes to keep this giant machine operating smoothly? Buckle up, conspiracy theorists (we see you!), because the answer might surprise you.

| How Many Employees At Denver International Airport |
They Come in Herds (Literally and Figuratively)
We're talking about a whopping over 40,000 employees. That's right, folks, DIA is basically a small city with its own ecosystem. You've got your pilots, your flight attendants, your baggage handlers (the real MVPs, let's be real), your security screeners (wielders of the dreaded pat-down), the folks working at all those restaurants you desperately crave greasy fries from at 2 am...the list goes on.
Fun Fact: That many people means there's bound to be a dentist, a hairstylist, maybe even a dog walker (because emotional support pups need vacations too!).
But Wait, There's More! (Because Conspiracy Theories Are Fun)
Now, some of you might be thinking, "40,000 people? That seems suspiciously high..." Well, fret not, theorists, we haven't forgotten about you. Here's some food for thought:
Tip: Be mindful — one idea at a time.
- DIA is the largest employer in the entire state of Colorado. So yeah, it kind of has to have a lot of people working there.
- Denver itself is a growing metropolis, and guess what? People like to travel. More people traveling means more people needed to handle them all. Shocking, we know.
Still not convinced? That's okay! We here at Not-So-Serious-Travel-Facts respect your right to believe in little green men working as baggage claim robots.
