Denver International Airport is its official name; however, its ICAO designator is KDEN. When Stapleton airport closed, Denver International airport opened and the designator transferred to it. Most of the time, when a city builds a new airport, the old airport remains open so the new one has a different designator. Colorado residents have called the new airport DIA all along.

There usually is a mechanical issue after you land so hard you snap off the main landing gear.

Denver International Airport - DIA - it’s the name of the airport.

Local news sources (this report was from the local CBS affiliate) sometimes use the abbreviation for the airport name rather than the IATA code. DIA is a prime example as is the local Orlando use of OIA for Orlando International Airport.

I thought they might be referring to IAD (International Airport at Dulles) in Washington D.C. Thanks.

If I remember right, they were calling the new airport DIA while it was under construction to differentiate it from the still-operating KDEN at Stapleton. When Stapleton closed, the new airport formally became KDEN, but the old informal DIA name kinda stuck around.
