Come join Denver and Albuquerque fly though as many states as possible. Take a trip up to Colorado to visit Colorado's own Pueblo airport which is home to one of the big farming trading forts. Then, go visit Albaquerkys Double Eagle Airport, just west of the city to avoid all those busy roads on the way through town. Take a trip up to Farmington Airport to visit four states at once and finally finish the night off with a very lighten up approach into Santa Fe. All four airports will be staffed as well as more.
