“With our very low fares and HVN’s unmatched convenience, we hope our Connecticut Customers will be inspired to visit our sixth Florida destination.
“We’re excited to take flight today for the beautiful beaches, colorful art and enriching cultural districts of this majestic Gulf Coast destination.”
