text: Denver International Airport is a hotbed of activity, as the Federal Aviation Administration has the facility listed as the third-busiest airport in the country, behind only Atlanta and Dallas-Fort Worth.
  And while that can lead to lengthy layovers and long wait times, there’s some good news when it comes to the amenities now available.
  Golf DEN is a new golf simulator that opened recently along one of the main concourses in the airport, meaning weary travelers can work on their ball flight instead of simply downing pints while waiting for a connecting flight. (Of course, cocktails are also provided at the new business.)

  According to a story at Westword, a Denver-based alt-weekly, the simulator is affordable as well, especially considering the cost to hit balls at other similar facilities.
  Fees are listed in fifteen-minute increments, but people can also pay ahead online for convenience. One session is $20, while thirty minutes runs $34, and a full hour costs $65.
  Equipment rental is included in the price, but Golf DEN encourages people to bring their own clubs or putters if they’re traveling with them. Additionally, comfortable clothes and real shoes that allow for a full swing are encouraged.
  Golf DEN is located on the top floor of Concourse A. After passing through security and emerging from the trains (or walking across the bridge), simulator patrons must keep going to the third level. According to the Golf DEN website, the company is working to register with Google and Apple Maps to provide walking directions.
  The simulator officially opened on Wednesday, joining others in Hong Kong, South Korea, Minneapolis and Dubai International Airport.
  And more are on the way. The company that built Golf DEN has a similar project scheduled to open at Los Angeles International Airport in the future.
