Boston Logan International Airport (BOS)

Terminal A at Boston Logan International Airport

Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) sits in East Boston, just 3 miles from downtown, making it one of the closest major airports to a US city center.

Four Terminals, All on the Silver Line

Logan has four terminals, A, B, C, and E, and unlike many airports, every one of them gets curbside service from the free Silver Line bus, so there is no wrong terminal to land at if you are heading downtown by transit.

The Silver Line Is Free and Fast

The MBTA Silver Line SL1 runs from any Logan terminal directly to South Station at no cost in the airport-to-city direction, taking about 20 to 30 minutes, which is often faster than a taxi through the Ted Williams Tunnel at rush hour.

Logan Is Boston’s Only Major Airport

Unlike New York, Chicago, or LA, Boston does not split its air traffic across multiple major airports, so Logan is almost always the right call regardless of which part of the city or nearby suburbs you are headed to.
