Terminal A Parking at Boston Logan: Closest Lots and Rates
Terminal A is Boston Logan's primary hub for Delta Air Lines operations. There is no dedicated Terminal A Garage — the closest on-airport parking is the Central Parking Garage, an 8–10 minute covered walk via the Level 4 pedestrian bridge. Central Parking runs $46/day drive-up or $29/day with an advance reservation. Cheaper alternatives exist if you don't mind a shuttle.
Overview: Terminal A at Boston Logan
Terminal A sits on the south side of the Logan terminal loop and is Delta Air Lines' terminal at Logan: Massport's airline list shows Delta as the only airline there. Delta says two of its Sky Clubs are on Concourse A. Massport publishes no schedule of busy hours for the terminal, so we give none.
Unlike Terminal B, Terminal A does not have a parking garage physically attached to the terminal building. Massport routes all Terminal A parking through the Central Parking Garage, located in the middle of the airport loop between Terminals B and C. From Central Parking, travelers cross a fully covered pedestrian bridge on Level 4 to reach Terminal A's check-in hall.
If price matters more than the walking distance, Economy Parking sits on the far side of the airport and runs $37/day drive-up or $29/day on an advance reservation, with the free Route 88 shuttle to Terminal A. Compare options on our full Logan parking rates page before you book.
Closest Parking Lots to Terminal A
The ranking below reflects actual walking distance and transit reliability for Terminal A travelers specifically. Central Parking is the clear winner on proximity; Terminal B Garage is a close second if Central is full; Economy Parking is the budget-friendly choice that adds a short shuttle ride.
Central Parking Garage
Covered, multi-level Massport garage in the center of the airport loop. Direct Level 4 pedestrian bridge to Terminal A — no shuttle, no outdoor walk. 8–10 minute walk from a typical parking space to Terminal A check-in. Best choice for Delta travelers with early or weather-sensitive flights.
Terminal B Garage
Covered garage attached to Terminal B. Same $46 daily / $29 advance rates as Central Parking. From Terminal B, you'll cross the Level 4 bridge through the garage to reach Terminal A — roughly 12–15 minutes door-to-door. Use this as a fallback when Central Parking advance spaces are sold out.
Economy Parking
Multi-level covered garage on the east side of the airport. $37/day drive-up, $29/day advance. Free Route 88 shuttle runs 24/7 to all four terminals, including Terminal A. Best choice for trips of 5+ days where the per-day savings add up.
Walking Distance to Terminal A
Note: there is no "Terminal A Garage" at Logan. If a booking site or search result lists one, they are referring to Central Parking. The Central Parking Level 4 pedestrian bridge is the fastest route into Terminal A — fully covered, climate-protected, and moving walkway–equipped for part of the route.
Actual walking time depends on which level you park on and where in the terminal your Delta gate is. Allow 8–10 minutes from a Central Parking space to the Delta check-in counter, then add TSA and gate time on top of that.
| Origin | Distance to Terminal A | Transit Type |
|---|---|---|
| Central Parking (Level 4) | 8–10 minute walk | Covered pedestrian bridge |
| Terminal B Garage | 12–15 minute walk | Covered bridge via Central |
| Economy Parking | 18–25 minutes total | Route 88 shuttle (free) |
| MBTA Airport Station | ~10 minutes total | Free Blue on-airport shuttle, every 5–6 min |

Tips for Terminal A Travelers
Terminal A has its own rhythm, and Massport publishes no schedule of its busy hours. Planning around the busy periods saves time on every step: parking search, shuttle wait, TSA queue.
1. Arrive earlier for an early-morning flight
If your flight is before 8 a.m., plan to be parked and inside the terminal by T-minus 2 hours for domestic, T-minus 3 for international. That is Massport's own arrival recommendation; we know of no published figure for how early the garage entrances back up, so we give none.
2. Have a shuttle backup plan
If Central Parking fills up on high-demand days, Massport redirects drivers to Economy Parking with free Route 88 shuttle access. The shuttle runs 24/7 to Terminal A. Build an extra 20 minutes into your timeline so a full Central Parking garage doesn't make you miss your flight.
3. Use TSA PreCheck and Delta Sky Priority
Massport lists two checkpoints at Terminal A, and Checkpoint 2 is TSA PreCheck only; CLEAR is also available. Massport publishes live wait estimates for each checkpoint on its Security Wait Times page, so check it before you leave home.
4. Check your gate before you walk
Massport publishes no gate-to-gate walk times for Terminal A, and we found no published figure for the distance between its gate areas, so we give none. Check your gate on the departure board rather than assuming proximity from your check-in location.
5. Book Central Parking in advance for $29
The $29 advance rate is the single best parking deal for Terminal A travelers — but it's capped at a limited number of spaces, and holiday weeks sell out a week in advance. Book at park.massport.com as soon as you have your flight confirmed. See our Central Parking guide for the full reservation walk-through.
