Note: Costs for air travel fluctuate frequently for each of the following airports, so we recommend keeping an eye on ticket prices over the next several months and grabbing the option that works best for you when you see the prices drop.

Option 1: FLYING INTO MONTROSE REGIONAL AIRPORT (MTJ) + SHUTTLE

Those of you that are just coming for the weekend can fly into Montrose Regional Airport (MTJ), which is about an hour from Downtown Telluride/Mountain Village. If you'd like to do things on your own schedule, we recommend renting a car, but a car is not necessary to get from the airport to Telluride or for getting around Telluride. If you don't want to rent a car, you can book tickets on the Telluride Express Airport Shuttle, which will get you from MTJ to either Downtown Telluride or Mountain Village for ~$80 + tip per person.

Option 2: FLYING INTO TELLURIDE (TEX)

It is possible, albeit expensive, to fly commercially into Telluride on United Airlines. From the airport it is a 10 minute shuttle ride to either downtown Telluride or Mountain Village. Please contact Telluride Express for a shuttle service to and from Telluride at (970) 728-6000. You can also contact Mountain Limo at (970) 728-9606, but clarify whether you are receiving a shared ride or a private ride, as private rides are more expensive.

Option 3: FLYING INTO DENVER + RENTING A CAR

For friends and family looking to make our wedding weekend part of a longer trip, we recommend flying into Denver International Airport a day or two early, and renting a car. Telluride is about a 6-hour drive from Denver, and the entire drive through the mountains is absolutely stunning. This article (https://lazytrips.com/trip/road-trip-from-denver-to-telluride) is helpful for planning your route. If you'd like to split up the drive into two days, we recommend staying in Salida, CO. There are a few cute and affordable places for an overnight!
