Where is the nearest airport? Boston's Logan International Airport.
What is the best way to travel from the airport to campus?
To get to MIT from the airport, we suggest taking a cab. The trip will take anywhere from 15-30 minutes, and the fare is roughly $35. The cab fare from Logan is always a bit more than the return, because a surcharge at the airport and a tunnel toll add approximately $5 to the total fare.
If you prefer public transportation, use airport transit to arrive at South Station and then take the MBTA (T) Red Line to the Kendall/MIT stop. The Samberg Center is about a three-block walk from the T.
What is the best way to travel to the airport?
We suggest taking a cab or shared ride service to arrive at the airport in 20-25 minutes. There are two cab stands - one on either side of the Marriott, on Broadway or on Main Street, both a short walk from E51 . Alternately, during high traffic times, take the Red Line from Kendall/MIT and transfer to the Silver Line SL-1 at South Station. The Silver Line has service every fifteen minutes for all airport terminals. This trip takes around 40 minutes from MIT.
Should I rent a car? We do not recommend renting a car.
