Why is BDL, Hartfield Springfield? there is no such airport with that name in the state of Connecticut.

BDL is for BRADLEY INTL AIRPORT is there a way to fix this?

Kevin doesn't do a very good job as Nathaniel. It has been brought up before. There is a thread or two dedicated to spelling and name errors.

What will be nicer, in my opinion, is that instead of ranting at each other in all caps maybe you could direct them in the right way, like this:

See http://airlineempire...ad.php?tid=1878, please.

Sometimes the search results can be hard to go trough if you're question can be expressed using many different words or when the topic was last brought up a very long time ago. :cool:

TWA, BDL may mean Bradley but the airport is called Hartford/Springfield.

Just like everyone else is saying here. The spelling now is not a priority. As long as we know what the airport is, then we are fine. Don't worry about it. I don't and my hub is BDL!

Hi MadMax, sorry if I touch your profit lines in BDL.

I see you are small so travelhouse will over a period reduce the BDL %;)

Yeah, I know. I SHOULD have added this:

DISCLAIMER: Kevin is in no way able to easily imitate people. Therefore, his imitations may not be accurate.

LOL, well if one is not familiar with the area, you know.

I am just glad that BDL is in the game. I wonder when is Miller going to put in HVN. That would so rock!

Thats a lot of info. However, you forgot to include the passenger figures. If every regional airport were included in AE it would have to have massive storage space for data servers. I have always thought that some areas in AE have better coverage then others, but that has to do with the number of passengers per year. I wonder by how passengers per year did the airports in Boise, Helena or Billings miss getting into AE?

BDL is Hartford/Windsor-Locks Bradley International. I fly in there regularly. The airport names you see came straight off the database I use. Frankly I don't take the time to proofread several hundred entires.
