Pat Donnelly Posted October 25, 2009 Report Posted October 25, 2009 Southwest Airlines has confirmed plans to begin nonstop service to Denver International Airport (DEN) starting March 14, 2010 at an introductory fare of $79. One flight per day Sunday through Friday will depart Bradley at 8:10 a.m., arriving at Denver International Airport at 10:30 a.m.. This morning arrival is timed to allow passengers to connect with Southwest cities throughout the western U.S. The return flight leaves Denver at 3:45 p.m., arriving at Bradley at 9:30 p.m. A Saturday flight leaves Bradley at 9:05 a.m., arriving 11:25 a.m. Another Saturday flight leaves Denver at 11:20 a.m., arriving at 5:05 p.m. to Bradley. Southwest Airlines is now serving Bradley passengers with 17 daily nonstop flights to seven cities. The new service will provide travelers with the only nonstop flight between Denver and Hartford since 2007. "Southwest's confidence in Bradley Airport and its ability to support this service is the latest encouraging news that travel for business and pleasure is on the upswing," said Connecticut Governor M. Jodi Rell. "It's certainly welcome news for residents of New England who vacation in the West, and business travelers coming to New England.” Added Southwest Airlines Chairman of the Board, President and CEO Gary Kelly, “This daily service will give passengers flying out of Bradley low-cost access to world-class skiing, the thriving Denver business community, and connections to dozens of Southwest's destination cities in the U.S. "We think Denver is a vibrant market for Bradley Airport with both business and leisure customers. It also makes sense in our schedule for customers going coast to coast or anywhere east to west,” Kelly said. Quote
