Terminal E Modernization

Today you can fly nonstop from Boston Logan to 56 international destinations. That’s 26 new nonstop international destinations since 2012 – all being served with the same number of gates in Terminal E since it was built in 1974. Our goal is to modernize and expand "Terminal E," entirely within the airport footprint. This will efficiently accommodate international demand in support of our regional economy while minimizing community and environmental impacts.

Project Overview

Improvements:

We are modernizing the facilities at Boston Logan's international Terminal E to ensure the Massachusetts economy continues to be connected to the world. Seven new gates will be added, including 3 gates originally approved in 1995 but never constructed.

Sustainability:

Our mission is to create a sustainable, high-performance, resilient, and resource efficient building that is a comfortable and healthy environment for passengers and workers alike. Terminal E sustainability improvements will be designed to serve as a noise barrier to the nearby East Boston neighborhoods and will achieve energy efficiencies at a minimum 20% better than the MA Energy Code.
