It was right about this same time a year ago that Denver International Airport lost Spirit Airlines, but soon you’ll see a new name on some planes at the airport.

The airport announced Thursday (Jan. 16) that Contour Airlines will be its 27th airline partner, and flights will begin in April.

Contour Airlines will fly from DIA to Moab, Utah as well as Vernal, Utah. There hasn’t been service to either city from Denver since SkyWest ended its service in January 2024.

Contour Airlines will begin flying to Moab on April 1 and Vernal on April 2, according to a press release from the airport.
