The scene at Denver International Airport (DIA) is business as usual today. The media relations team for DIA says the security incident last night involving Denver bound United Flight 663 has not impacted operations at here at DIA. “Airport personnel are cooperating with federal law enforcement officials leading the investigation”, according to a statement released last night.
Lines at check-in appear to be normal. The security screening lines looked a little heavy this morning, but security lines now seem to have normalized for this time of day. Passengers and people passing through the airport do not seem too concerned now that more is known about the situation. One woman bluntly described the diplomat’s behavior as “stupid”. Others say they think it’s wrong to invoke diplomatic immunity, they’re not sure what should be done for handling the man and they’re not afraid to fly.
