im flying into boston with jetblue then flying to turkey on turkish airlines and i have 2 hour layover. is this enough time? is boston airport hard to navigate terminals?
ZAP 04/17/2018
That is enough time if both flights are on the same reservation. It is fairly easy to navigate.

Hello,

I am flying ( with UNITED ) from SFO to FRA and have 1 hour and 4 minutes layover in BOS, I do not have checked in bags, only a backpack with me.

Is that time really enough?
srg 03/27/2018
Forgot to mention that it's the same reservation.
ZAP 03/29/2018
That is enough time but doesn't leave much to spare. You have to go from Terminal B to Terminal E and go through security.

Thank you!

Is 38 minutes enough layover time from Syracuse to Boston then to San Francisco? We are not experienced air travelers and have never been to Boston's airport. Thank you.

Bsf 02/13/2018

How much time do I need between flights. I arrive from London at 1:30pm on British Air and will take another flight to Indianapolis. What time should I book my return to Indianapolis?
ZAP 01/20/2018
I wouldn't book anything before 4 PM.

If traveling to another country I have 2 stops does my baggage get claimed is does it automatically go to my other flights
ZAP 01/09/2018
You're going to have to be more specific about where you're flying from and where you're flying to and on what airlines.

Hi we are coming from Orlando to Boston on virgin (operated by delta) arriving at 15.04 and then depart at 2140 by virgin to London. Will our bags be transferred automatically and any ideas what to do in the 6 hours we have? We are a family of 4 - kids 11 and 13. Can we leave the airport?
ZAP 12/18/2017
Yes, your bags will be transferred automatically. Yes, you can leave the airport.

Is 1 hour 20 minutes enough of a layover flying Aer Lingus from Dublin and 2nd leg Jet Blue? It will be one reservation, so luggage should go through and I know Dublin has pre-clearance. Just wondering if it's enough time between gates/terminals. Thank you!
ZAP 12/12/2017
Yes, that is enough time. All you have to do is walk from your arrival gate to your departure gate.

Thank you!

Flying domestic (ultimately, from San Diego to DC), with a 54-minute layover in BOS. One, single reservation with American Airlines, probably with no checked baggage. Is 54 mins enough?

Thank you!
ZAP 12/11/2017
American Airlines does not fly from San Diego to Boston. Are you stopping somewhere else first? Is the flight from San Diego operated by Alaska Airlines?

I am going to connect Quatar airways via Boston in 3 hours . I will have 2 checked Baggage and coming from Toronto Via Air Canada.
Please tell me the entire procedure.
Is 3 hours enough time ?

You pre-clear US Immigration and Customs in Toronto. All you have to do in Boston is claim your bags from Air Canada in Terminal B, take them with you to Terminal E, re-check them with Qatar Airways, and go through security.
