๐ข Terminal Information
Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) is the primary aviation hub for New England and a major transatlantic gateway, serving over 43 million annual passengers. The airport features four passenger terminals (A, B, C, and E) that are currently undergoing a nearly $2 billion comprehensive capital modernization program known as 'Logan Forward.' A significant milestone in this project is the 2025 opening of a new post-security pedestrian connection between Terminals B and C, allowing travelers to move between these facilities without re-clearing security and providing seamless access to expanded dining and retail zones.
The terminal complex is strategically organized by carrier and service type to optimize passenger flow. Terminal A is the primary home for Delta Air Lines, while Terminal B serves a mix of major domestic carriers including American Airlines, United, and Southwest. Terminal C is the base for JetBlue's extensive operations and Aer Lingus. Terminal E, the dedicated international facility, has recently been expanded with four new state-of-the-art gates and a multi-level transportation center. This expansion includes iconic red-roofed architecture and handles almost all international arrivals, housing the airport's centralized U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) processing facility.
Amenities at BOS are world-class, featuring 13 premium lounges such as the Chase Sapphire Lounge by The Club, the Delta Sky Club, and specialized international spaces for Emirates and Lufthansa. The airport is renowned for its 'Kidport' interactive play areas, which are being refreshed in 2025-2026, and its diverse culinary landscape featuring local icons like Legal Sea Foods. Ground transportation is exceptionally well-integrated through the MBTA Silver Line, which provides free service to South Station, and a comprehensive on-airport shuttle network. The facility also features a modernized Rental Car Center (RCC) and a specialized ferry service connecting the airport directly to downtown Boston and Hingham.
๐ Connection Tips
Connecting through Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) is more efficient with the B-C post-security connector. For domestic travelers transiting between American, United, and JetBlue, the new walkway allows movement between terminals in under ten minutes while remaining airside. However, for those transiting from international flights, you must clear U. S. immigration and customs at Terminal E, retrieve your luggage, and re-check it at domestic ticketing before proceeding. It is recommended to allow at least three hours for international-to-domestic connections, especially during the peak afternoon arrival bank when large jets from Europe and Asia arrive simultaneously.
Terminals A and E remain separate post-security, requiring a transfer via the Logan shuttle bus network (Route 11, 22, or 55) or pre-security walkways. There is no automated baggage transfer for separate tickets; all luggage must be personally managed during inter-terminal moves. For those with a long layover, the Chase Sapphire Lounge in Terminal B offers a premium waiting environment with craft beer and quiet workspaces. If you are staying overnight, the Hilton Boston Logan is directly connected to Terminals A and E via climate-controlled skybridges.
In the event of a missed connection, airline customer service desks are centrally located in each terminal. Because BOS is a major hub for Delta and a focus city for JetBlue, major carriers provide multiple daily frequencies, facilitating various re-booking options. Ground transportation is conveniently located outside each terminal, with the free Silver Line SL1 providing a reliable link to South Station. For a truly seamless connection to the Seaport district, consider using the Logan Water Taxi, which offers a unique 10-minute transit across the harbor.
