Hi everyone!
So, I'm flying out of Logan on Sunday, 12/15, and flying back on Thursday, 12/19. My outbound flight departs at 7AM and my flight back lands at around 6AM.

I don't want to drive my car as I'm afraid I might encounter snow/black ice.

What's the most efficient and cost-effective way for me to get to/from Logan otherwise. I looked into taking the train from Providence, but the timing doesn't work.

Thanks!

Very early flight, you should drive to Braintree and take the Silver Line into Logan if there is one bus that will get you there for 5:30 a.m. or sooner. Or, drive to Braintree the night before, stay at a hotel that has a shuttle. There is also the Train Station at Braintree behind the mall. Check with Bonanza bus lines in Prov. they may have a very early bus and you can buy a RT ticket for about $17 into Logan. They used to run twice every hour depending which way you are heading.

You can also drive to Rt. 140 in Mansfield and take the bus to Logan from the strip shopping center off the exit.

Livery will cost about $125 one way. Depends on how much you really don't want to drive.

Take the Logan Express from Braintree. The first bus leaves very early in the morning.

Massport - Braintree

The timing of your outbound flight - stinks for using mass transit.

Either you overnight in Boston near the airport and use a shuttle, drive to Braintree, pay to park and pay to take the bus..............or take a limo.

Perhaps there's a neighborhood young 20-something looking to make a few extra bucks and will drive you?
