United says travelers can change their flight or connect through a different city by using the United app or messaging them. United says it is adding more flights on Friday to allow for flexibility.
Frontier's advisory is in effect for travel for March 13 and 14. Passengers who bought their ticket before March 8 and are supposed to travel either of those days can change their flight.
So far, flights have not been canceled.
Denver International Airport says they are also preparing for heavy, wet snow and strong wind. They say they have hundreds of snow removal equipment and 500 trained snow-removal employees ready to tackle the storm across the property which spans 34,000 acres.
DIA says passengers should always check their flight status with their airlines and should expect to "spend a little extra time on the aircraft prior to departure."
