Logan Airport Parking: Find Rates, Reserve with FlyLogan App

Quick answer

FlyLogan is Boston Logan's official free parking app by Massport. Reserve a spot in advance (from $29/day on-airport), receive a digital SmartStub ticket, and scan it at garage gates—no printing needed. The app also tracks shuttles, flight status, and terminal maps.

Back to Boston Logan Airport Parking: The Complete Guide

The Logan Airport parking app — officially called FlyLogan — is a free mobile app published by Massachusetts Port Authority (Massport) that lets travelers reserve parking, retrieve digital tickets, track shuttles, and locate their vehicle at Boston Logan International Airport (BOS). It covers all on-airport garages managed by Massport and also provides real-time airport information like flight status and terminal maps. The app is available on both iOS and Android.

• FlyLogan is the official app: built by Massport, free to download, covers all Logan on-airport parking garages.
• Advance reservations save money: booking ahead through the app can bring Central Parking rates from $46/day down to around $29/day, per Massport's current pricing. Spaces at that rate are limited.
• The app holds roughly 18,000 parking spaces across Logan's garages: Central Parking, Terminal B Garage, and the Economy Parking Garage.
• Economy Parking is the cheapest on-site option at $37/day, with a free shuttle to all terminals.
• Off-site lots on Triply run from about $19/day with a shuttle (about $13/day with no shuttle). They are not in the FlyLogan app, so compare them separately on Triply.
• Terminal E surface lots are closed during construction of the new 5,000-space garage (completion ~2028), so plan accordingly.

Compare off-site BOS parking on Triply, from about $19/day with a shuttle.

What Is the Logan Airport Parking App and How Does It Work?

The FlyLogan app is Massport's official mobile app for Boston Logan International Airport. It handles parking reservations, digital ticket storage, shuttle tracking, flight status alerts, and terminal navigation — all in one place.

The app connects directly to Massport's parking reservation system. When you book a parking spot, the app generates a SmartStub — a digital parking ticket that works at the garage entry and exit gates. You don't need to print anything. Just open the app, tap your reservation, and scan the code at the gate.

Beyond parking, the app also covers:

• Real-time flight status for arrivals and departures at BOS
• Interactive terminal maps for Terminals A, B, C, and E
• Shuttle tracking for on-airport Massport buses
• Ground transportation info including the free MBTA Silver Line SL1
• The Mark My Car feature to save your parking location before heading to the terminal

The app was developed by Massport and is branded around Logan. It won't help you book off-site lots — for that, you'll want a third-party comparison tool (more on that below).

How to Download and Set Up the FlyLogan App for Parking

Downloading FlyLogan takes under two minutes. Search "FlyLogan" in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. It's free, with no in-app purchase required for parking reservations.

Here's how to get started:

1. Download the app — search "FlyLogan" on iOS or Android. Tap install.
2. Create or log in to your Massport account — you'll need an email address and password. This is the same account used on massport.com.
3. Go to "Parking" — select the garage, enter your dates, and choose your lot.
4. Confirm your reservation — you'll receive a SmartStub (digital ticket) by email and in the app.
5. At the garage — tap your reservation and hold the barcode up to the scanner. The gate opens automatically.
6. On return — repeat at the exit gate. Payment processes automatically against your saved card.

Tip: Save your SmartStub as a screenshot before you arrive. Cell service inside garages can be unreliable, and a saved image still scans perfectly at the gate.

Which Logan Airport Parking Lots and Garages Can You Book Through the App?

The FlyLogan app covers all Massport-operated on-airport parking at BOS. That means three primary options, depending on your terminal and budget.

Note: Terminal E surface lots are currently closed while Massport builds a new 5,000-space multi-level garage (estimated completion 2028). Do not plan to park in the old Terminal E lots — they are not available. If you're flying internationally out of Terminal E on British Airways, Lufthansa, Emirates, or Qatar Airways, use the Central Parking Garage instead.

The app shows real-time availability for each garage. During peak travel periods, advance spots fill up fast. Booking 48-72 hours ahead is the safest move for holiday travel.

For a full breakdown of all these rates, see our guide on Logan Airport parking costs and the full 2026 rate breakdown.

How Much Does Logan Airport Parking Cost When You Book Through the App?

Booking through the FlyLogan app (or Massport's website) unlocks advance reservation pricing — the biggest discount available for on-airport parking at BOS.

Based on current Massport rates (verified April 2026):

• Central Parking Garage (walk-up): Up to $46/day
• Central Parking Garage (advance reservation): Around $29/day — a savings of roughly 37% off the walk-up rate
• Terminal B Garage: Same rate structure as Central Parking
• Economy Parking Garage (walk-up): Up to $37/day — already the cheapest on-airport option

The advance reservation discount is limited in availability. Once those slots are gone, you pay the walk-up rate regardless of when you book online. That's why booking early matters — not just to save a spot, but to lock in the lower price.

Most off-site lots on Triply cost less per day than the $29 advance rate. Se-lect Airport Valet Parking is about $19/day with a shuttle, and Park N Boston is about $22/day. PreFlight Airport Parking, at about $30/day, costs slightly more than the advance reservation and beats only the walk-up rates. Triply rates are for a 7-day stay booked ahead and change by date. Over a week, Se-lect comes to about $134 against about $203 at the advance rate. For long trips, see our guide on Boston Logan long-term parking lots and rates.

FlyLogan App vs. Third-Party Parking Apps: Which Is Better for BOS?

The FlyLogan app is the best tool for booking on-airport Massport garages. But it doesn't show off-site lots, and most of those cost less per day.

Here's how FlyLogan compares to third-party apps for BOS parking:

The smartest approach: check the on-airport rates in FlyLogan or on massport.com, then compare them with off-site lots in Triply's BOS parking search. If you choose on-airport parking, finalize the reservation through FlyLogan to get the Massport advance rate and SmartStub. If you choose an off-site lot, book it on Triply.

How to Use the Mark My Car Feature to Find Your Vehicle at Logan

The Mark My Car feature is one of FlyLogan's most useful tools — and one of the least talked about. It saves a pin with your parking location so you can find your car after a long trip.

Here's how to use it:

1. Park your vehicle in the garage and note your level and section number (posted on columns throughout Central Parking and Terminal B Garage).
2. Open the FlyLogan app before you walk away from your car.
3. Tap "Mark My Car" in the app menu. The app saves your GPS location as a pin.
4. When you return, open the app and tap your saved pin. It shows your location relative to where your car is parked.

This feature is especially helpful in the Central Parking Garage, which connects to all four terminals (A, B, C, and E) via pedestrian bridges on Level 4. It's easy to re-enter the garage at the wrong level after a red-eye. The saved pin removes the guesswork.

One practical tip: take a photo of the level/section sign near your car as backup. GPS inside multi-story garages can drift slightly. A photo plus the app pin together is foolproof.

Common FlyLogan App Problems and How to Fix Them

Most FlyLogan issues are minor and fixable in under a minute. Here are the most common ones travelers run into, and exactly what to do.

SmartStub Not Loading at the Gate

This is the most reported issue. The app may time out or fail to load your ticket if cell signal is weak inside the garage. Fix: Screenshot your SmartStub barcode before you arrive. A screenshot works just as well at the scanner. You can also log in to massport.com from a laptop before your trip and print a backup.

Login Loop or Session Timeout

Some users report being logged out repeatedly, especially after app updates. Fix: Delete and reinstall the app. Log in fresh. Make sure you're using the correct Massport account credentials — not a third-party login.

Reservation Not Appearing in the App

If you booked on massport.com and don't see it in the app, check the email address linked to your account. Fix: Log out, then log back in. Reservations sync automatically on login. If it still doesn't appear, call Massport parking support — there are 24/7 call boxes in every garage for immediate help.

App Shows No Availability

Advance reservation spots are genuinely limited, especially during peak seasons. If the app shows no discounted slots, it doesn't mean the garage is full. It means the pre-booked rate is sold out. You can still enter and pay walk-up rates at the gate. Or switch to an off-site lot on Triply, with free cancellation and a full refund up to 24 hours before check-in.

Is Booking Logan Airport Parking Through an App Worth It?

For on-airport parking, using the FlyLogan app to book in advance is almost always the right move. The advance rate at Central Parking (~$29/day vs. $46/day walk-up) represents a 37% savings — real money on a multi-day trip.

That said, even the discounted on-airport rate is higher than most off-site lots on Triply. Se-lect Airport Valet Parking is about $19/day, a valet lot where you leave your keys, with a 24/7 shuttle every 20 minutes for up to 4 passengers (no vehicles larger than a pickup). Park N Boston is about $22/day, where staff take your keys and park the car, with a free 24/7 shuttle every 30 minutes; pickups, oversized SUVs and vans pay $10/day extra at the lot, and bookings must be made at least 24 hours ahead. PreFlight Airport Parking is about $30/day with a 24/7 shuttle every 10 minutes that picks you up at your car, and you exit through a manned lane. It costs slightly more than the $29 advance reservation, though it is cheaper than the walk-up rates.

The app makes the most sense if you value the direct terminal walkway, want everything managed in one place, or are parking for just one or two nights. For trips of five days or more, Se-lect and Park N Boston come out ahead. A 7-day trip in Central Parking at the advance rate costs around $203. The same week at Se-lect costs about $134, a savings of about $69, and at Park N Boston about $154, a savings of about $49. PreFlight, at about $211 for the week, costs more than the advance rate.

Before you decide, use Waze's live traffic map to check drive time to the airport on your travel day. Traffic through the Ted Williams Tunnel or Sumner Tunnel can add time, which affects whether a closer on-airport garage is worth the premium.

Also plan ahead for security. TSA PreCheck holders typically move through faster, which changes how early you need to leave your parking spot and arrive at the terminal.

The bottom line: use FlyLogan to book on-airport garages, and use Triply or a comparison app for off-site alternatives. Both tools are free and take minutes to use.

Find and reserve off-site BOS parking on Triply, with free cancellation and a full refund up to 24 hours before check-in.

Compare BOS parking rates: Se-lect Airport Valet Parking, the lowest-priced shuttle lot Triply sells near Boston Logan, costs about 58% less per day than the $46/day terminal garages.
