Boston fish: landing at 9:15am at Logan before a 10am meeting in Cambridge. Is this a bad plan? Can I make it, if I take a taxi? Don’t have much experience with Logan airport.

If that’s your only reason to flying to Boston, better to take an earlier flight or fly the night before. If this is one meeting in a series of a couple days and you can afford to miss it without losing client goodwill then it’s worth a gamble, as long as you tell the client ahead of time that you might be late but will dial-in on your way if running behind

Where are you flying from and which airline? If AA shuttle, call the lyft as you deplane and by the time you get to the pick up area, it should be 1-2mins away. I do Logan to MIT in under 30mins all the time (MIT is the closest part of Cambridge to Logan though)

That's tight, it'll take at least 30 mins to get to Cambridge without traffic.

Depends where in Cambridge, but I think you can make it. It’ll be tight but I could usually land, deplane, call an Uber and be in class down at BU within 45-1 hour depending on the time of day.

As someone who flies into Logan every week. Highly, highly recommend a taxi. No wait, and they know where they are going.

As far as timing....it’ll be tight. Good luck.

At least that's been my experience when I worked for a client in Cambridge.

^ only way u gonna make it if it's MIT otherwise no way you will make it unless the lights are all green the stars are aligning and the Uber is doing fast and furious down

Boston weather is fickle this time of year. In summer it might work but I wouldn’t chance it now.

I’m going to MIT! And AA shuttle!

Better to call an Uber, or just take a taxi? It’s on a Tuesday morning, so not peak airport time
