Scheduling aircraft for maximum utilization is a science. Your situation is for a routing which may not have as many passengers as BOS, so it is optimized for the BOS (and perhaps other) connections with BDL sold as an afterthought. In any event, so long as you understand that you may be stuck for a day at MCO, you are all set.
