Although the airport is described as the ‘Hartford area’ airport, it is half in East Granby and half in Windsor Locks.
East Granby is very rural indeed, full of farms and woods. There is hardly anything there between the airport and the Mass border, and after you cross the border there isn’t much there either. They have moose, deer, and bears.
I flew in there several years ago to pick up a car at the Consumer Reports test facility, which is somewhere south of town. It was pretty rural. Hartford isn’t all that big in the grand scheme of things. It’s not like this is LaGuardia or Love Field, with city all around for a long way.
Was there a couple wks ago..the Enterprise is next to a Motel 6 where I stayed.It’s
in Windsor Locks.
It is the Hartford area airport. Bradley International is in East Granby, Suffield and Windsor Locks. My uncle lives about 2 miles from Bradley, the second largest New England airport. Bradley, is northwest of Hartford in small towns (no counties in Connecticut).
