Frontier Adds Atlanta Flight from Bradley
Apr. 6—WINDSOR LOCKS — Low-cost carrier Frontier Airlines will add a nonstop flight from Bradley International Airport to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, the Connecticut Airport Authority announced today.
The service will begin June 11 and will operate four times per week. For flight times and booking information, visit
While it's a new route for Frontier — which also flies from Bradley to Denver, Miami, Orlando, and Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina — it's not a new destination for Bradley fliers. According to the airport's website, Delta Airlines offers nonstop service to Atlanta.
"We are excited to see Frontier Airlines expand their footprint at Bradley International Airport with the addition of new, nonstop service to Atlanta," said Kevin A. Dillon, executive director of the Connecticut Airport Authority.
"This added service strengthens our partnership with Frontier Airlines and builds on our commitment to offer more travel options to popular destinations on this renowned low-cost carrier. As we join the aviation industry on the road to recovery, we thank Frontier Airlines for their continued vote of confidence in Bradley International Airport."
Bradley is in the process of ramping up its offerings as Americans, emboldened by vaccines against the coronavirus, gradually return to air travel after an abysmal 2020.
About 2.4 million fliers passed through Bradley last year, down 63% from 2019.
Air travel has started to recover in recent weeks. More than 1 million travelers have gone through U.S. airports for each of the last 20 days, although March traffic remains down nearly half from the same month in 2019.
