Manchester, east of the river
East of the river from Hartford, reserve a ride from Manchester to Bradley Airport
Manchester, CT
Sedan, up to 3 riders from $115
SUV, up to 6 riders from $150
per car, each way, plus Connecticut sales tax: about $122 and $160 with the 6.35% tax.
From a street on the east side of the river, you can reserve a ride from Manchester to Bradley Airport through the office in Hartford, CT, which hands your request to one Connecticut car company. That company writes back with its own fare, and the ride is held for you only once it confirms in writing after you say yes. Manchester counted about 60,000 residents in 2020 and lies just past East Hartford, and every address inside the town line starts from the same figure.
One Connecticut car company with its own livery permit quotes, drives and is paid for each ride; it pays the office in Hartford a set amount for every ride it accepts, and riders pay the office nothing.
Landing at Bradley with Manchester as home
Rides from the airport have to be arranged ahead, so put the flight number and the scheduled landing time in the request along with your Manchester address. The car company names the meeting spot in its written confirmation. As of October 2026 the driver typically waits inside Terminal A, at the meet-and-greet area of the exit corridor your concourse uses, one east and one west. Cars may not wait at the curb, so text or call the number on that confirmation once your bags are in hand.
Late arrivals are common here: on Tuesday, October 13, 2026, a public flight board listed 21 passenger flights scheduled to land between 10 p.m. and 12:59 a.m. The office phone closes at 7:30 p.m., and after that hour the number printed on the car company's confirmation is the one to dial for anything about the ride.
Five towns share a line with Manchester
Manchester touches Vernon, East Hartford, Glastonbury, Bolton and South Windsor. A house a block from one of those lines can get mail that names the town next door, so check the property tax bill: the town printed there sets your starting figure. All five sit on the roll with figures of their own, listed lower on this page. If your bill says East Hartford, use that town's page to reserve a ride from East Hartford to Bradley Airport with its own numbers.
Reading the Manchester numbers closely
The card shows a sedan from $115 and an SUV from $150, per car and each way. Connecticut sales tax of 6.35% goes on top, which brings those to about $122 and $160. The sedan carries up to three people and the SUV up to six; because each figure covers the whole car, three people sharing one sedan share a single fare.
Both are starting points for any address in town. What counts is the car company's written fare for your exact street, date and time, and that written fare is the fixed rate for the ride. Anything the company adds, such as an extra stop or waiting past what it allows, shows up as its own line in that same written fare.
