Massachusetts has its own child restraint rule based on age and height; check the current rule on mass.gov. If you need a child seat, either bring your own or book a private transfer that provides one.

The Silver Line with kids

The Silver Line SL1 serves every terminal and service from the airport is free. It runs to South Station, which connects to the Red Line and commuter rail. Check the timetable for the current frequency. With a stroller and bags it is more comfortable outside the busiest commuting hours.

Best options for families

Budget option: The Silver Line. Free from the airport, and South Station connects to the Red Line and commuter rail.

Comfortable option: A pre-booked transfer with a child seat and a vehicle sized for your luggage. The price is fixed at booking, which removes the logistics of buses and trains with children.

Middle ground: A taxi works if your children no longer need a child seat. It is metered on the city tariff of $2.60 for the first 1/7 mile and $0.40 for each additional 1/7 mile (about $2.80 a mile), with the $2.75 toll on trips from Boston proper to Logan.

When a private transfer from BOS is the right choice

  • Travelling with small children: child seats are requested at booking for the exact ages, so you are not relying on a taxi that may have none.
  • Strollers, cots and luggage: a minivan takes everything in one go, door to door, with no stairs or platform changes.
  • Three or more people: a 4-seat car to Boston is from €105, about €26 per person, usually level with or below separate public-transport tickets once you count the walk, the wait and the last mile with bags.
