Shiny new concourse at Bradley International Airport
We’re loving the look of this concourse at Bradley International Airport (BDL) in Windsor, CT, which is an extension of the existing Terminal A and part of an 80,000 square-foot facility add directly behind the airport’s Sheraton Hotel.
The new concourse adds three additional gates, new restroom facilities, a second nursing room for mothers and new dining and retail option.
The new concourse is part of a larger terminal expansion that has been underway since March 2023 and includes a new inline baggage screening system below the concourse which opened in fall 2025.
A mile-long conveyor belt now carries bags from the airline ticket counters directly to the new screening facility, which houses the explosive detection machines that once took up a lot of space in the airport lobby.

Toronto-based Porter Airlines‘s new seasonal nonstop service between Vancouver International Airport (YVR) and Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) is notable for being the airline’s first transborder route from Western Canada.
Flights will operate daily until April 19, 2026 on the airline’s Embraer E195-E2 aircraft, which have a 132-seats configuration with no middle seats.
This is Porter’s third route to Phoenix, joining year-round service from Toronto Pearson and seasonal Ottawa flights.
If you fly to PHX, be sure to check out this new pre-security exhibition.
