United Airlines adds nonstop flight from Denver to Carlsbad, its 170th domestic destination
Beginning at the end of March, United Airlines will add its 18th flight from Denver to California.
The nonstop, twice-daily service will fly passengers between Denver International Airport and Carlsbad, Calif., according to a Tuesday news release from United Airlines. The San Diego County municipality will be the airline’s 170th domestic destination from the mile high city.
“With the addition of Carlsbad, United now serves more cities in California than any other airline, but it is the deep connection to the aviation community that makes the airport stand out,” said Patrick Quayle, senior vice president of Global Network Planning and Alliances at United, in the release. “Carlsbad represents what makes aviation special — passionate pilots starting their careers and building their skills in small communities, eager to fly across the U.S. and globe.”
The service will begin flying on March 30, 2026. Tickets are now for sale online at united.com.
