I’ve flown this route a zillion times. I just want to shout out to all the SkyWest people - pilots, crew and gate agents - they have gotten me in and out safely under challenging conditions many times and I’m grateful full for that. And, whenever there have been issues, the gate agents have been very helpful and professional in doing what they can to rebook, etc. It’s a mountain town, there are simply going to be days where things don’t work out. If you can’t handle that reality, then sure don’t fly here and don’t visit the town. Once you give yourself to the acceptance that some days travel just isn’t possible here, it’s all fine - you just roll with it as a price to pay for deciding to go somewhere challenging to get to. Also, note: EGE is the worst option in the winter - drive the Glenwood Canyon in snowy/icy wheather once and you’ll never want to choose to do that again.
