Cheap Boston Flights

There are three principle airports that receive flights to Boston: Boston Logan International Airport (BOS), (located just through the Ted Williams Tunnel, across the water from downtown Boston), Hanscom Field for corporate flyers in Bedford, and Worcester Regional Airport in central Massachusetts. Boston Logan is a hub for JetBlue, Delta, and US Airways and features awarding-winning restaurants, many specialty shops, and art exhibits that will kill layover time agreeably or provide souvenirs for any collector. Boston Logan's terminals are far apart, but airport shuttles frequently go from terminal to terminal. Passengers can use airport shuttles from Logan Express, the MBTA subway Blue and Silver Lines, the commuter ferry, or taxi services to get to the city of Boston.

Boston Weather

The best time for travel to Boston is during the spring around April or early autumn in September, where the weather is mild and the ice and snow take their own vacation flight from Boston. Visiting can be a little more extreme during the area's long winter, which can mean cold temperatures up to five months. If your flight is during the winter holidays, bring some extra layers and expect some wind and plenty of ice. Summers can be humid with July typically the hottest month. Come fall, the foliage turns to orange and red hues, making for lovely photos.

Getting Around Boston

Boston has many different public transportation options including MBTA buses, subways, rails, and ferries to get you from your Boston flight to anywhere in the city. Parking is rare and traffic can be quite frustrating, so the subways and trains are your best to getting around the city. The convenient transportation system means visitors are well-connected to Boston neighborhoods and surrounding areas following their Boston flights. Downtown Boston is just across the water from Boston Logan, and areas such as Cambridge or the many historic sites in the area are easily accessible as well. There are also many airport shuttles between Boston Logan and nearby airport such as John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) that run on a daily basis, and some routes include an early bird trip.
