Uber, Lyft Pickups Now Allowed at Logan Airport, Companies Say
Taxis and buses are no longer your only option at Logan International Airport.
BOSTON, MA — Starting Feb. 1, taxis will no longer be the only option for pickups at Boston's Logan International Airport.
Lyft and Uber both said Thursday they have come to an agreement with Massport, and can begin picking up riders there starting Feb. 1. Already, those companies can drop riders at the airport.
"We applaud Massport's decision today to give the green light for Lyft to operate at Logan. Starting on February 1, travelers will be able to access safe, affordable Lyft rides directly from the airport," Lyft spokesperson Adrian Durbin said in a statement to Patch.
