Bradley International Airport is expected to announce Tuesday that it will begin offering COVID-19 tests as an option for travelers who want to avoid a 14-day quarantine if they are flying from a state listed on the Connecticut’s travel advisory.
Details about how the tests will be administered at the state’s largest airport are expected to be announced at a 2 p.m. press conference at the airport.
Two weeks ago, Gov. Ned Lamont altered the state’s COVID-19 testing requirements that are part of the travel advisory for passengers arriving at Bradley. Travelers can now avoid a mandatory 14-day self quarantine by providing a negative test result obtained within 72 hours of arrival or after arriving at Bradley, staying in quarantine until the test results are obtained.
