Denver Airport’s New CEO Focuses on People and Progress | Denver News

Denver International Airport has a new interim CEO, Dave LaPorte, who’s laser-focused on keeping employees happy so they can deliver top-notch service to travelers. With the airport aiming to handle 100 million passengers by the mid-2030s, massive upgrades are underway — including renovating concourses and restrooms, expanding Concourse C and the north terminal, and finally finishing the long-delayed Great Hall project, expected under budget by 2027. LaPorte also plans to build pedestrian walkways between terminals, funded by airlines and led by United, to ease reliance on often-disruptive trains. He’s tackling traffic woes on Peña Boulevard too, while staying grounded in his interim role — focused on steady progress, not permanent leadership. The mayor will name a permanent CEO by year’s end, but for now, LaPorte is committed to getting back to basics and making Denver’s airport great again.
