Groton-New London Airport May Offer Commercial Service

NEW LONDON, CT - Efforts to bring commercial service to the Groton-New London Airport are ongoing and won't be affected by additional commercial service at Tweed New Haven Airport, according to The New London Day. Connecticut Airport Authority Executive Director Kevin Dillon said that the direction the CAA has set "calls for the development of (Groton-New London) and in particular commercial service at that airport."
