Bradley International Airport Makes Prestigious List Once Again

The Connecticut Airport Authority is thrilled to share that Bradley International Airport has been recognized as one of the best airports in the nation for the third consecutive year.

In October, Condé Nast Traveler released the ranking as part of its 32nd Readers’ Choice Awards and Bradley International Airport was ranked as the 5th best airport.

“We are thankful that the support of Bradley’s loyal, growing passenger base has once again earned us a spot in this prestigious list of top ten US airports,” said Kevin A. Dillon, A.A.E., Executive Director of the Connecticut Airport Authority. “This is now the third year in a row that we are recognized for our commitment to enhancing the travel experience at Bradley International Airport. We’re very proud of our efforts to make Bradley Airport the best it can be for our passengers, and we thank them for their vote of confidence.”

More travelers are discovering Bradley, as we continue to expand our nonstop flight options.  In the ranking, customers praised the airport for “convenient on-site parking, plentiful charging stations and free Wi-Fi, decent restaurant options, and an overall relaxed atmosphere.”

This year, a record 600,000 registered Condé Nast Traveler voters weighed in for the Readers’ Choice Awards surveys.

The Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards survey hotels, islands, cities, spas, airlines, airports, and others, and are some of the most important awards in the travel industry.
