It took about an hour. The first hotel we used (I don't remember the name, sorry--it was back in 2010) was within a couple of miles of the terminal and it worked out very well. Usually, we just leave our car at Parking Spot self-park for $6-7/day --but the park-ride-fly option is great for very early morning flights outbound or late-night arrivals, as well as if weather conditions make it unsafe to drive to BDL on the day.

I head Uber is a fair bit cheaper than Valley Transporter, and also heard VT is under new ownership and I'm not sure about them.  I will need to be picked up in Florence at about 5:50 AM---I've never hired an Uber driver for such an ungodly time of day and am concerned about being stiffed. :-)  Can anyone recommend a reliable driver (Uber or other)?
