This award adds to the list of recognition throughout the pandemic highlighting the proactive approach of passenger safety and customer service.
On its website, USA Today noted that Bradley International Airport “ranks as the second-busiest airport after Boston Logan, yet it remains a convenient option with on-site parking, lots of charging stations, free WiFi and proximity to both New York and Boston.”
