We experienced bad weather, which turned our 1.5 hour flight from Las Vegas to Denver, into 3.5. The pilot and crew kept us updated and explained that we had to circle and or possibly redirect to another airport. After circling for sometime, we were able to land smoothly in Denver. Thank you to all the flight crew, tower control, and all who got us to our destination safely.
