In response to a question we received from Jerry, one of our blog readers, we decided to make up a post dedicated to getting to and from Logan Airport. Whether you’d prefer to have the convenience of a taxi or the riding with the locals on the T, there’s plenty of ways to get to where you need to be once you land in Boston.
Taxis are available at the airport 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. To hail a cab, there’s Massport Ground Transportation agents located outside of each terminal to assist your needs. If you need a van, station wagon, or ramp-equipped ride, these agents are the ones to go to for help. Massport has also provided this very thorough guide to taxis to and from Logan.
As for the T, there’s Silver Line Rapid Transit Bus Service as well as free shuttle service to the Blue Line Airport Station. The Silver Line will take you directly to South Station (with access to the commuter rail, Amtrak, and bus lines). The Blue Line provides access to Government Center Station, where you can jump on the Orange or Green lines. Here’s the guide to MBTA Subway & Bus Service.
For destinations outside of the city area, there’s also the Logan Express. Peabody, Woburn, and Braintree are all served through this bus service. It also makes stops at all terminals and the ride runs about 30-45 minutes long. For van service, here’s a complete shared van listing.
If you’d like information on renting a car during your stay, here’s a comprehensive listing of rental companies serving Logan Airport.
Last, but certainly not least, is the water taxi and water shuttles. These are fun and enjoyable ways to get to your destination via the water. These services operate year-round and offer a map for your convenience.
