I’ll note here that most people had face masks on, and they had to be removed when going through TSA so they could verify your ID photo. Empty corridors put off an odd feeling in DIA. The “news stand” type stores were still open though, so a magazine and a bag of chips were still available. The smaller specialty food stops were closed, as were most of the retail outlets like the clothing and perfume stores. The fast food places were still open, but even that seemed to be just the big name ones like McDonalds and such. Most of the restaurants were shut down as well, at least any of them that were designed as sit-down restaurants. The shuttle train that usually takes people to different wings/terminals of the airport was shut down, and all flight were leaving from one terminal that was within walking distance from the TSA checkpoint, negating the need for the shuttle. Once through security, the terminals were ghost towns. The alternate TSA Security checkpoint actually took a bit longer to get through. Maybe it was a coincidence, but 3 different agents looked at it by the time they let me go. I’ve taken this flashlight with us everywhere we travel, and never once had anyone check it out through a security line. Going through security was no different, although I got the feeling that the TSA agents may have been bored or maybe just being more thorough, as they opened my bag to check out a flashlight I had with me, and went so far as to take the batteries out to check it out. The line was actually kind of long, and in total it would take 25 minutes to get through security, which is actually a bit longer than what it normally takes in the standard area. There were signs directing passengers to an alternative TSA check in area, one that had only a single person checking IDs/boarding passes, and only two points for x-ray and baggage scans. Just like the vacant parking lot, it was very odd to see it like that, almost a bit earie. What I found was the regular TSA area that generally has thousands of people lined up and at least a dozen check points was completely closed. I already had my boarding pass on my phone, so I didn’t stop at the ticket counter or anything and proceeded directly to TSA check.

The usual TSA Security checkpoint at DIA was closed. Emily dropped me off at the terminal, and there were 2 other cars dropping passengers off and nothing else really No cabs or rideshare cars, no shuttles or buses. The vacant lot was almost unrecognizable for what it is, as we’ve never seen it with no cars and it just looked… off. I arrived 2 hours early as per usual with any flight, and the first thing we noticed was that one main parking lot was completely closed, and they were directing all short term and long term parking to just one parking lot. Suffice to say, it’s usually a bustling place. If you have a flight coming up, or are just curious what it was like to fly out of the largest airport in the country during a pandemic, read on.ĭenver International Airport is the largest airport by area in the country, and consistently ranks as one of the top 5 busiest as well.

Victor flew out to pick the car up and drive it back to Colorado. Victor and Emily decided to take advantage of the low interest rates and great deals there are to be had on vehicles during this crisis, so we purchased a 2019 Honda Civic Type R located in Indiana. What we are going to go over is what it was like to fly and travel across the country during this time. We don’t think there’s anyone reading this that isn’t aware of the Coronavirus pandemic situation over the last couple months, so we’re not going to explain any of that. This is the untold truth of Impractical Jokers.An empty terminal at Denver International Airport (DIA) feels like a ghost town during the Coronavirus pandemic. Still, there are plenty of behind-the-scenes stories that even hardcore fans aren't aware of, and with that in mind, here are a few things you may not have known about America's funniest friends. After multiple seasons of Impractical Jokers, we've come to feel like we know these guys-a familiarity that's only deepened because of the revealing nature of the show, which leaves very few parts of the Jokers' private lives off-limits from being on public display. Since the days of Allen Funt messing with people on Candid Camera, getting a good-natured laugh out of unsuspecting marks has been a proud television tradition, and for good reason-in the right hands, this type of thing can be very, very funny. With all due respect to everything else on the network's schedule, the best thing on TruTV is Impractical Jokers, a hidden camera show featuring four lifelong friends challenging each other to take part in embarrassing situations, with whoever buckles forced to suffer public humiliation.
