Massport to Open Off-Site TSA Screening Terminal in Framingham for Logan Flyers on June 1

The three-month trial tests whether off-site TSA screening reduces airport lines.

Overview

  • Massport, which unveiled the pilot Monday, set a June 1 start for the Logan Airport Remote Terminal in Framingham with a three‑month trial through August.
  • The site lets eligible travelers check in, drop bags, clear TSA security including PreCheck, and ride a secure shuttle that delivers them inside Logan past the checkpoints.
  • Access starts with Delta and JetBlue flights scheduled between 5:30 a.m. and 4 p.m., tickets cost $9 one way with kids riding free, and parking at the site is $7 per day.
  • Reservations are open on Massport’s website from 90 days to 90 minutes before departure, buses run hourly from 4 a.m. to 1 p.m., and drop-offs occur airside at Gate A18 for Delta and Gate C8 for JetBlue.
  • TSA officers will screen passengers using federally approved procedures, Landline is operating the facility and secure shuttles, the pilot budget is about $2.5 million from ground-access fees, and officials will weigh expansion to more airlines and Logan Express locations after August.
