Liquid Limits Will Change at Denver International Airport

If you have been to Denver International Airport for the past 20 years, you know that there is a limit to how big of a container of liquid you can bring on a plane to or from Colorado.

Have you ever wondered why? I have not until recently. The rule was created in 2006 to prevent liquid explosives.

Liquids, gels, and aerosol containers can not be larger than 3.4 ounces. However, this policy that has been put in place for nearly 20 years might be going away thanks to new technology.

I flew out of Denver International Airport. I pride myself on being very efficient when I am approaching the security checkpoint. I always ensure my laptop is in a different container, my shoes are off, and my pockets are always empty and ready to go.

I watched my backpack go through the scanner and then get pushed off to the side. A TSA agent looked through it, took out a sealed sugar-free Red Bull, and threw it away.

I forgot it was in there. I was a tad embarrassed. I was more annoyed that I basically threw away three bucks.

Liquid Policy Could Change in Colorado Soon

Some airports have started upgrading their scanners. These new scanners would allow travelers to have containers that are up to two liters.

Want to bring a two-liter of Diet Coca-Cola? Knock yourself out.

This sounds great and will make traveling easier. However, these scanners are slowly being rolled out. Experts predict that all airports and scanners will be upgraded by 2040.

That is a long time from now, but the process has officially begun.

HIlariously Nasty 1-Star Google Reviews of Colorado's Denver International Airport

Visiting an airport is rarely fun. Hardly anyone reports having an intellectual experience while being funneled through TSA or spending four hours waiting to catch a connection.

Most of the time, a visit to an airport is just that - a visit to the airport. From time to time, though, trouble can arise, a flight gets delayed, Starbucks on Concourse A doesn't serve your coffee at the preferred temperature, or the bathroom runs out of paper towels.

While most flights are uneventful, some suffer what they might consider a "bad experience." Most are trivial. With that, here's a look at a selection of hilariously nasty 1-star Google reviews of Colorado's Denver International Airport.
