Airport-wide 30-day hourly pattern.
Bar height = typical wait at that hour (Boston local, 30-day history). under 15 15–30 over 30 · outlined = current hour

Timing call

Current security timing is manageable at 6 minutes, but 9 am - 10 am is still the most likely stress window.

Best window: 10 pm - 11 pm · Risk window: 9 am - 10 am

BOS playbook

Data status
This page is currently backed by 6 live BOS checkpoint readings, so the terminal and checkpoint spread matters more than a single airport-wide average.
Airport context
Boston Logan has four passenger terminals: A, B, C, and E. The live wait feed is organized by checkpoint rather than by one airport-wide number.
Airport context
Terminal E is the main international terminal, so the security experience there can behave differently from the domestic terminals during long-haul departure banks.
Airport context
Massport notes that the published wait times are estimates based on real-time data from queue entry points, and overflow beyond that area can make the total experience longer.

Terminals at a glance

Terminal note
Terminal A uses Checkpoints 1 and 2, Terminal B uses Checkpoints 3 and 4, Terminal C uses Checkpoint 5, and Terminal E uses Checkpoints 6 and 7.
Terminal note
Once you're comparing BOS waits, checkpoint selection matters more than the airport average because Logan distributes screening across those seven named entry points.

Airline notes

Airline routing
Terminal A is Delta-heavy, Terminal B carries a mixed domestic airline load including American and United activity, and Terminal E handles the main international departure flow.
Airline routing
If your itinerary involves Terminal E, add extra buffer for document checks and longer gate walks even when the checkpoint wait itself looks manageable.

Local tips

Local tip
Logan publishes checkpoint-specific live waits, so trust the card for your exact checkpoint instead of treating BOS like a single airport-wide line.
Local tip
Terminal B is split across two checkpoints, and the faster option can shift during the day, so check whether your flight is on the B1-B22 side or the B23-B40 side before heading in.
Local tip
Checkpoint 2 at Terminal A is TSA PreCheck-only, which can materially change your best move if you're flying Delta with PreCheck.
