Ball Corp returns to Denver the week of a fatal Denver airport incident

Ball Corp flew from J V Ranch Airport in Texas to Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport on May 26, 2026, a brief hop that brought the company's Bombardier Global 6000 back to its home base in Westminster, Colorado.

The return comes the same week Denver International Airport remains in the headlines after a Frontier Airlines flight struck and killed a pedestrian on the runway during takeoff on May 8, according to a Boston Globe report. The NTSB is gathering details on the evacuation, which left 12 passengers with minor injuries and five hospitalized. Ball Corp's flight, by contrast, arrived without incident.

Ball Corp's recent flight history shows a busy week of travel: the Global 6000 visited Montreal, Washington D.C., Charlotte, and West Palm Beach before the Texas stop. The company, which divested its aerospace division in 2024, now focuses exclusively on aluminum packaging, with CEO Daniel Fisher leading operations from the Colorado headquarters.
