By plane
Denver International Airport [url=http://flydenver.com/]] is the closest major airport to Cheyenne. Rental cars are available at the airport. Shamrock Airport Express [url=http://rideshamrock.com/rs_ax.php[/url]]has shuttles from the airport to Cheyenne with drop-offs at the Holiday Inn and the Best Western Hitching Post, via the Harmony Transfer Center in Fort Collins, Colorado.
For the adventurous, small 15-seat prop planes fly from Denver International Airport to the Cheyenne Regional Airport [url=http://cheyenneairport.com/[/url]]. The flight is not recommended for those with weak stomachs or those who hate roller coaster rides. However, if you would like both an aisle and a window seat you are in luck. Great Lakes Airlines [url=http://greatlakesav.com/[/url]]operates the 40 minute flights (about 20 minutes of actual flying time) and code shares with Frontier [url=http://frontierairlines.com/frontier/index.jsp[/url]]and United [http://united.com/[/url].
