BOS playbook
This page is currently backed by 7 live BOS checkpoint readings, so the terminal and checkpoint spread matters more than a single airport-wide average.
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.
Terminal E is the main international terminal, so the security experience there can behave differently from the domestic terminals during long-haul departure banks.
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 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.
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
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.
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
Logan publishes checkpoint-specific live waits, so trust the card for your exact checkpoint instead of treating BOS like a single airport-wide line.
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.
Checkpoint 2 at Terminal A is TSA PreCheck-only, which can materially change your best move if you're flying Delta with PreCheck.
