ST. LOUIS – Southwest Airlines announced its expanding service to New England with a new non-stop service between St. Louis Lambert International Airport and Hartford, Connecticut.
Service to Bradley International Airport will begin on Aug. 7.
Bradley International Airport is the second busiest airport in New England located between New York City and Boston. The new flight will depart St. Louis daily at 4:25 p.m. for a 7:50 p.m. arrival in Hartford. The inbound flight from BDL will arrive in St. Louis daily at 12:45 p.m.
“This is great news for our region because Hartford was one of our top priorities for new service,” said STL Airport Director Rhonda Hamm-Niebruegge. “This gives us greater access to and from New England. The demand is there between our regions with a number of business connections like insurance, higher education, research and science fields.”
In addition to Hartford, Southwest also announced for its August schedule an additional non-stop flight to Philadelphia, expanding to three flights a day.
