Denver International Airport moves toward becoming smoke-free

Denver International Airport (DIA) will support Denver Mayor Michael B. Hancock’s plans for creating a better, healthier Denver by moving toward becoming a smoke-free facility.  All but one of the four indoor smoking lounges at DIA will be shut down for remodeling in order to make room for new non-smoking concessions concepts, creating a healthier environment for travelers and employees.  Mayor Hancock asked airport concessionaires to join him in an effort to end smoking now and two of DIA’s three indoor smoking lounge leaseholders have acted on this challenge.  Airport leadership will present the proposed new concession agreements to Denver City Council’s Business, Workforce and Sustainability Committee on Wednesday, May 23.
