BOS Boston

How deep the BOS board really is

The table above says where a courier can fly from BOS. This reads the same 194 destinations back for the questions a dispatcher asks second: how much of the board rests on one airline, how much of it runs less than daily, whether the return leg is as thick as the outbound, what the clock here does to a Gulf working day and which of the destinations shut at night, all of it computed on 2026-09-07 from AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics.

• 99of the 194 destinations are flown by one airline
• 78destinations run less than once a day
• 54destinations have four or more departures a day
• 35.1%of the destinations name JetBlue Airways, the largest presence here

Who holds the departures at BOS

89 airlines appear on the BOS board and they do not hold it evenly. JetBlue Airways is on 68 of the 194 destinations, 35.1 per cent of them, and on 12 of those it is the only airline flying the sector. The destinations it appears on carry 411.3 of the 653.7 departures a day this airport files, though other airlines fly some of the same sectors, so read that as reach rather than as a share of the aircraft.

The next largest presence is Delta Air Lines on 67 destinations. 58 of the 89 airlines at BOS appear on a single destination each, which is the long tail every airport carries, and none of it is a rebooking option when the sector you need is the one that fell over.

That is a middling concentration at BOS: one airline on 35.1 per cent of the destinations and the other 64.9 per cent spread across 88 airlines. A cancellation inside the JetBlue Airways network is often survivable inside the same booking, but on the 126 destinations JetBlue Airways does not touch, a rebooking means moving to a carrier the desk has to check for a through fare first.

How much of the BOS board is daily

Of the 194 destinations, 116 are flown at least once a day and 78 are not, 43 of them running once a week or less. The median destination on the BOS board is flown about once a day.

An average of 0.14 flights a day is the schedule statistic, and it is worth translating it before anything is promised to anybody: BOS to Worcester (ORH) is about one a week, so a missed departure there is not a delay of hours, it is the next slot.

The five busiest destinations carry 112 of the 653.7 departures a day, 17.1 per cent of the whole board. The other 189 destinations are spread widely enough that a courier who misses the first departure at BOS usually has somewhere else to look on the same board.

The ten destinations out of BOS where one airline holds the sector and files fewer than seven departures a week, with the weekly figure taken as the average daily rate multiplied by seven rather than as a fixed timetable. 57 further destinations sit in the same position and are listed in the board above.

The way back from BOS

The desk holds the return direction for 90 of the 194 destinations, and a courier plans the way back on those figures rather than on the outbound. On one of them the return into BOS runs thinner than the outbound by more than a quarter. The widest gap is Ottawa (YOW) at 3.1 out a day against 2.1 back.

It runs the other way as well: New York (LGA) files 24.1 a day back into BOS against 0.29 outbound, which is the shape that strands a courier at this end rather than at the far end.

The clock at BOS

BOS keeps America/New_York time, eight hours behind Dubai in summer and nine hours behind in winter, because the clock here moves and the Gulf clock does not.

When it is 09:00 on a Dubai working morning it is 01:00 at BOS, so a nine to six day at each end overlaps for an hour. That is a narrow window for a signature, a customs query or an authority to release, and it is the reason a consignment for BOS is briefed the day before rather than on the morning it flies.

The night at BOS

8 of the destinations from here carry a documented night restriction of their own, which is a departure time question at this end rather than an arrival problem at the other.

Into London (LHR) the door shuts at 23:30 local, so the last departure from BOS that lands inside it leaves around 11:41, on a modelled block of 6h 49m. Into Paris (CDG) the door shuts at 00:00 local, so the last departure from BOS that lands inside it leaves around 10:50, on a modelled block of 7h 10m. Into Amsterdam (AMS) the door shuts at 23:00 local, so the last departure from BOS that lands inside it leaves around 09:49, on a modelled block of 7h 11m. Those three departure times out of BOS are worked backwards from the published window with the block time model this site uses everywhere, 720 to 880 km an hour by sector length with thirty minutes on the ground, so they are arithmetic rather than a timetable and the desk checks the published departure before it promises the landing.

Where BOS turns up on the rest of this site

BOS carries two other pages on this site as well: the United States country desk, which sets out the customs practice, the working week and the road legs behind this airport and the BOS transit page for the connecting case, where a courier changes aircraft here rather than starting or finishing.

The site publishes 54 airport pair pages that start or end at BOS, each with the distance, the block time, the carriers on the sector and a door to door clock. The busiest are Boston to Chicago (ORD), Boston to Washington (DCA) and Boston to Atlanta (ATL).

Five of the 346 published hand carry lanes run through this airport: Boston to Zurich, Copenhagen to Boston and Dubai to Boston. A lane page is the commercial version of the board above, with the customs, the ground legs and the price at BOS written out.

20 courier postings name BOS as the airport a courier here flies from: Worcester, Providence and Springfield.

To price a movement rather than read the board, the route calculator opens with BOS already set as the origin, and it works out the flying time, the distance and the delivery hour for any of the 194 destinations above.
