Longtime Denver International Airport CEO Kim Day announced Friday she’ll be retiring from the position after more than 13 years.
Day, originally appointed to the position in 2008 under former-Denver-Mayor-now-Senator John Hickenlooper, will be stepping down July 16.
“Experiencing breast cancer made me think about reducing stress and retiring last year, but then COVID-19 hit,” Day said in a statement Friday. “I felt the responsibility to lead the airport through the pandemic and leave it in a strong and financially healthy place with major capital projects on target to meet their budget and schedule goals.”
DIA is the third largest airport in the United States. During her tenure, passenger traffic grew from 51.2 million to a pre-pandemic high of 69 million annually. Day has said publicly she expects the airport to hit 80-90 million passengers per year soon.
In DIA Is a COVID-19 Safety Joke, I recapped my recent experience at Denver International Airport, where mask use was spotty, social distancing was lousy in part because of ongoing construction that shrank the available space, and a train ride from a distant gate that was so crowded, passengers were packed more tightly than Dippin Dots.
I reached out to DIA for a response to my observations, and the airport s reply deflected much of the blame for the problems onto travelers rather than taking responsibility for the often sorry situation which is likely to get worse, owing to widespread confusion over the latest guidance from the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in regard to facial coverings and social distancing.
