In December 2025, the Denver City Council voted against permitting the charter airline Key Lime Air to lease space at the city's airport. The decision reflects ongoing challenges faced by smaller airlines in securing operational facilities within major airports. Specific reasons for the council's rejection were not detailed in the available report.
