Need a tiebreaker: is a $12 airport train ticket a budget hack or a trap?
Two years back in Denver my cousin swore the A Line into Union Station beat his $40 parking, so I tried it last week for a $12 ride to DIA. Saved $28 for sure, but I had to leave my place at 4:10am and stand on a platform in the cold for 22 minutes because the first two trains were full. My buddy says the real hack is sleeping in and paying for the garage. I say the train wins if your flight is before 8am. What do you all do when the math works but the morning does not?
