Windsor Locks, CONN – March 28, 2025 – The Connecticut Airport Authority (CAA) is pleased to announce that Spirit Airlines is adding new nonstop service from Bradley International Airport (BDL) to Detroit Metro Airport (DTW) and Nashville International Airport (BNA).
The new flights will operate on Spirit’s Airbus aircraft as follows:

  • Detroit: Beginning June 12, operates daily
  • Nashville: Beginning August 15, operates on Fridays and Mondays
“We greatly appreciate Spirit’s continued partnership as the airline offers more, low-fare options from Bradley International Airport,” said Michael W. Shea, Executive Director of the Connecticut Airport Authority. “The nonstop flights to Detroit and Nashville will offer travelers greater convenience as Spirit strengthens its footprint in our region.”

In addition to the upcoming service to Detroit, MI (DTW) and Nashville, TN (BNA), Spirit currently flies nonstop from BDL to Fort Lauderdale, FL (FLL), Myrtle Beach, SC (MYR), and Orlando, FL (MCO).  The airline made its Connecticut debut nearly eight years ago when it launched operations from BDL in April 2017.
 
“We’re always looking for new ways to deliver a great value to our Hartford Guests, and soon they’ll be able to fly to Detroit and Nashville in style with Spirit’s newly enhanced Guest experience,” said John Kirby, Vice President of Network Planning at Spirit Airlines. “Our new, high-value flights will also make it easier for more travelers to explore Connecticut’s capital city this summer.”
