DENVER — In the days following a swath of airline cancellations that stranded thousands of passengers prior to and following Christmas, Denver International Airport CEO Phil Washington says he believes the situation was preventable.
The airport announced Wednesday that it will hold a review with its three major airline carriers over the next two weeks in hopes of determining the root causes of these massive airline issues following a severe winter storm. “You know, accountability definitely has to happen,” Washington said. “I don’t like to see passengers in my airport be inconvenienced. And so this becomes a real issue for us. We have been working day and night as an airport to try and resolve these issues with the airline and we’ll continue to do that.”
