About this route

London to Boston flights

London to Boston has 5+ daily flights from Heathrow, making it a well-served transatlantic route for both business and leisure travellers. BA, Delta, Virgin Atlantic, and JetBlue all operate direct services. The 7-hour outbound flight is slightly shorter than New York, and the same 5-hour timezone difference applies.

Afternoon UK departures (2-5pm) land 4-7pm Boston time (9pm-midnight UK time). Evening departures (7-9pm) land 9-11pm Boston time (2-4am UK time). If you are tracking an evening departure from the UK, you will likely be asleep at landing time.

Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) has four terminals (A, B, C, E). Terminal E handles international arrivals. The airport is unusually close to downtown, just 3 km across the harbour. The Blue Line subway connects the airport to downtown in 15 minutes. Taxis reach Back Bay in 15-20 minutes without traffic, though the Ted Williams Tunnel can back up during rush hours.

JetBlue's entry on the London-Boston route in 2021 added competition and brought prices down. They operate from Terminal C at Logan with a connection to Terminal E for arrivals. Return flights depart Boston in the evening (8-11pm), landing Heathrow 7-10am UK time, well-timed for morning arrivals.
