Default FedEx BOS to MEM question

Anyone know of a good way of getting to the ramp in BOS. I don't think you can park there if your not a FedEx employee. I was thinking of trying to ask the hotel you guys stay at if I could park there for the week. What hotel is it?
All else fails I was going to head to the terminal and take the water shuttle bus to the Hyatt and walk down from there.

Are you starting class or jumpseating? Only reason I ask is because of length of stay as there are a couple of options:

1. Do an off airport parking deal and have them take you to the fedex terminal - tell them your an employee, should be $10 per day.
2. Take a bus to any terminal and then take courtesy bus 66 - water shuttle. That will take you to the terminal.
3. Hotels may work for a night or so, but I wouldn't push it past that.

Also, if you live closer, MHT is a good option as it doesn't cost anything to park there.

Don't have an interview yet but hopefully soon. Trying out for the pro sim job. I am going down to emerald coast interview prep in Columbus, ms on sat.
Thought I would spend a few days in MEM and check it out.
I will probable take Logan express to the terminal and walk from the water shuttle stop.
Thanks for the info

http://flightlineinc.com/ has an airline discount from MHT to BOS. Park at MHT then shuttle to BOS. The Massport shuttle will drop you in front of the FedEx ramp.

Once you get to any main terminal at BOS (a-e) go to the lower level and look for the blue and white Massport buses. You will need to look for #66 water shuttle bus and you can ask the driver to drop you off @ FedEx.

Don't try to park at the ramp as you will be ticketed and towed.

Best of luck
