context_page_description: The Logan Express is an airport bus shuttle which operates between Boston Logan International Airport and Massachusetts suburbs. The service, which is funded by Massport, consists of five routes that run between all of Logan Airport's terminals and the towns of Braintree, Framingham, Peabody, Woburn, and the Boston neighborhood of Back Bay. Each route runs direct between the airport and its suburban terminus on a set schedule.
  The Logan Express operates using motorcoach-style buses on most of its routes, except for Back Bay, which uses Massport owned airport shuttle buses. Passengers traveling to Logan Airport on the service are dropped off at each terminal's departures level, while passengers taking the service from the airport are picked up on the arrivals level at designated curbs. Buses make onboard announcements detailing which terminal stop passengers should disembark at, depending on which airline they are flying.
  Massport considers the Logan Express to be a part of its strategy to reduce traffic congestion at the airport, improving passenger experience and reducing the environmental impact of traveling to the airport.
context_section_description: Buses to Back Bay are operated by Massport and make two stops in the neighborhood, at Hynes Convention Center and the MBTA's Back Bay station. Buses departing Logan Airport are free for passengers, while trips to the airport are $3.00. This service runs daily every 20 minutes, starting at the top of the hour, from 5:00 am to 10:00 pm. Travel time is approximately 20 minutes. Back Bay buses wear a standard Massport bus livery but are highlighted with orange accents and have additional Logan Express titles.
