But You’ll Never Have Paris

The Courant’s Tom Condon has an interesting article about Bradley airport and the risk adverse thinking that goes into just about every decision made about the airport. Granted, most of us in Fairfield County are closer to the New York airports, so familiarity with the quirks and benefits of Bradley aren’t always top of the mind.

Two tidbits out of the article were interesting, Connecticut’s second largest trading partner after Canada is France. Delta wanted to start a Hartford to Paris flight, but the DOT, which oversees the airport, said no.

Condon lays out the case on why Bradley is noncompetetive with other airports, but you can just apply that to Connecticut overall.
