Aurora airport rides to DEN by month, and what to reserve in each
Aurora airport rides to DEN by month: the same drive to the same terminal, twelve different ways. A January pickup starts in the dark on a frozen street; a July one may start before sunrise and come home through an evening storm. Each sheet below gives the Denver normals for that month, the office's phone hours in that season and what your request should mention.

Snowfall: NOAA 1991 to 2020 monthly normals, the Denver station in the northeast of the city. Temperatures: the same normals at the Denver International Airport station. Sunrise and sunset: computed for the airport on the 15th of each month, Mountain Time.
Why the month changes the request
The starting figures on the fares page are the same in every month, and the company's written quote states the total for your date as one sum. What changes is everything around it. Between October and May a pickup may follow a night of snow, and the company may move the time earlier. Between May and September storms come in the afternoon and the evening, and ski bags give way to golf bags. The office's phone opens at 5 a.m. in summer and at 6 a.m. in winter, so the hour you can call changes too.
Thanksgiving week and the year-end holidays
For pickups from the Wednesday before Thanksgiving through the Sunday after it, and from December 20 through January 3, the office asks for the request at least five days ahead. Requests sent later are still read and placed, but the car company may already have its cars spoken for.
