A duty-free shop is opening up at Bradley International Airport.
Passengers flying to Dublin, Ireland as well as to Toronto and Montreal in Canada or Cancun, Mexico will be able to buy items while exempt from customs duties and consumption, liquor and tobacco taxes.
“The addition of this duty free shop to our menu of services is an important milestone in our continuous terminal transformation process. We’re pleased to now offer our international passengers an opportunity to shop and save on premium items and to expand the shopping options for our domestic passengers,” Kevin A. Dillon, executive director of the Connecticut Airport Authority, said in a statement.
International Shoppes is a specialty retailer with duty free shop operations at John F. Kennedy International Airport and Boston’s Logan International Airport, among others, will manage the new shop.
“We are excited to expand our operations to Hartford’s Bradley Airport and look forward to providing excellent customer service to its passengers. Customers can expect a full assortment of duty free liquor and tobacco products as well as duty paid fragrances, skin care sets and confection that can be sold to all customers,” Matthew Greenbaum, vice president of the International Shoppes, said.
The 500-square-foot duty free shop is located near Gate 8 and will be open Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. and on Sundays, from noon until 6 p.m.
Passengers who are traveling to destinations within the U.S. can purchase certain items at the store but will not be exempt from the local sales tax.
