Flying from Fort Myers to Windsor Locks: what you need to know
The flight
The nonstop from RSW to BDL runs about 2h 54m over 1,182 miles. It's a comfortable mid-range flight: long enough that seat choice matters a little, short enough that paying up for extras rarely does.
Airlines on this route
Southwest Airlines flies this route nonstop. That matters more than it sounds: the cheapest fare on one carrier is rarely the same product as the cheapest on another. Checked-bag fees, free seat selection and change rules all differ, so compare the full trip cost before you pick a winner. See our airline guides for exactly what each carrier charges — then send an enquiry and we'll confirm the all-in price for your dates.
Leaving from Fort Myers (RSW)
Plan to be at the airport two hours before a domestic departure — ninety minutes can work at smaller airports outside peak times, but security lines are the one variable you can't control. If you're checking a bag, add time rather than cutting it close. Our Fort Myers airport guide covers terminals, parking and ground transport so you can plan the trip to the airport, not just the flight.

Check Windsor Locks to Fort Myers fares — prices on the return direction often move on a different rhythm.
When to book
For a trip of 1,182 miles, booking 3–6 weeks ahead typically lands you in the sweet spot. Leave it to the final two weeks and prices usually climb as the cheapest seats sell out. If your dates are flexible, midweek departures are where the lower fares hide on most domestic routes.
