Default Parking at BOS

Hi all-

Although I live closer to MHT, I'm considering BOS as my commuter airport and I am wondering what kind of options I have for parking down there that won't cost $100 a week. I've taken a look at some places online but even the 'economy' parking lots don't seem very cheap. I suppose taking the T would be a viable option and parking in the cheap lots there. I'm just wondering for those that commute out of BOS what you do for parking?

Thanks in advance for the input!

Usually if you find the airport parking office and show them a crew ID they'll let you buy an employee parking pass to park in the employee lot. I can't speak for BOS, but it's $34 a month in MCO.

Try Preflight parking in Chelsea. Thats where I park. Its pretty good they pick you up right at your car and drop you off there. Your guarenteed a space and they write it down so you don't have to remember. I don't no what the price is but, they have some sort of deal with Eagle.

Well good luck in training I am in ATL here w ASA in basic indoc, not too bad, hope they get this contract figured out....if they do, this will be a good place to be, COMAIR should open up BOS as a base, it would make sense, i think they overnight like 4-5 jets there each night. Good luck in training bud.

Eagle reimburses me $80 a month for not using Preflight. I'm on the cape & use the P&B bus - you should have an equivalent service, Concord Trailways? or Dartmouth? Its $90 for 10 one way passes, parking free at the Sagamore bridge. The Logan Express bus passes are $75.00 for 44 trips, but monthly parking is another $66 or so, I'm not sure of the geography on the north shore, but Woburn, or Peabody are the northern terminals.

Check with the info desks on the baggage service level to find out which bus lines run to your vicinity. Then go to the parking violations office in Terminal C - they only sell the discounted bus passes there - not on board or at the suburban stations. You'll need your company badge, no Logan ID required, and pay only by Visa/MC.

If you live near Nashua, NH this could be an option http://www.bostonexpressbus.com/bost...ress/index.htm

also, Lowell, Ma. has a commuter rail station that takes you to Logan as well http://www.mbta.com/schedules_and_ma...ns/?stopId=107
