Boston Logan International Airport Guide

Boston Logan International Airport (BOS)

Logan International Airport, first opened in 1923 as an airfield for the Massachusetts State Guard and the Army Air Corps, is the country’s 18th busiest airport. Lt. General Edward Lawrence Logan, a Spanish-American war hero from South Boston, was given the airport’s name in 1943.

All visitors to the United States will need to show documentation of a negative COVID-19 viral test within one day of boarding their flights, regardless of country or vaccination status.

Massport works with the TSA to keep security line lengths under 15 minutes; however, to minimize any delays, we recommend arriving two (2) hours before domestic departures and three (3) hours before international departures to allow enough time for check-in and security screening.

In terms of passenger volume and cargo handling, it is the largest airport in both the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the New England region, as well as the 16th busiest airport in the United States and the busiest airport in the Northeast outside of the New York metropolitan area.

“Boston Logan Airport is ideally placed with good links to the city,” says the 3-Star Airport Rating for amenities, comfort and cleanliness, shopping, food and beverages, and staff service.

Carrying an approved credit card is the easiest method to get free TSA PreCheck. If you pay with a credit card, you can get a refund on the TSA PreCheck or Global Entry application fee if you use that card to pay in advance.

You should arrive at the airport at least two hours before your domestic flight, but checking in online allows you to see the status of your flight ahead of time, saving you time by allowing you to stroll directly up to the security queue and then down to your gate.
