Concerned about navigating CT’s largest airport? For a fee, help’s on the way.

Bradley International Airport has announced that it has launched a new concierge service that will make it easier for passengers to navigate Connecticut’s largest commercial airport.

Once a flight is booked, a member of the concierge team will meet passengers upon their arrival at the airport and assist them with:

• checking in at the airline ticket counter
• going through the TSA security checkpoint via priority access.
• finding their gate
• delivering food directly to the gate through BDL Market
• retrieving checked bags
• navigating to or from parking, pick up or car rental

The cost of the concierge service, which began Monday, starts at $79.99. Advanced registration is required. To make a reservation, visit www.bradleyairport.com/concierge .

“This new concierge program at Bradley International Airport is offering travelers another layer of convenience ,” Kevin A. Dillon, executive director of the Connecticut Airport Authority , which operates Bradley.

“The program is designed to make traveling through the airport truly easy, by offering personalized assistance and removing some of the unknowns that a passengers may have about flying.”

The service could be especially helpful to older adults traveling alone and in need of assistance; families with children; first-time fliers; passengers with special needs; and “individuals who are looking for an elevated or personalized travel service,” according to Bradley.

The service is being offered in partnership with Travelers Aid International , which helps guide airport, cruise, rail and bus passengers at 25 locations.
