Driving in and around Boston Logan International Airport

Boston Logan International Airport sits just across the harbor from Downtown Boston, making it one of the closest airport-to-city transfers in the U.S. When you rent a car here, you will connect quickly to major routes such as I-90 (Massachusetts Turnpike) and I-93, which link the airport with central Boston and surrounding New England destinations.

Downtown is typically a 10–20 minute drive depending on traffic, but Boston’s road layout can feel compact and fast-moving, especially during weekday rush hours. Tunnels and harbor crossings are common parts of city driving, and some routes include tolls. Parking in central Boston is usually easiest in garages, as street spaces are limited and often tightly regulated

Pay close attention to one-way streets, bus lanes, and posted restrictions. Massachusetts law requires seatbelts for all passengers and restricts handheld phone use while driving.
