Quick Answer: How to Use the Boston Express Bus Schedule Today

The fastest way to use the Boston Express bus schedule is to choose your corridor first. Use Route 3 if you are traveling from Nashua, NH or Tyngsboro, MA. Use I-93 if you are traveling from North Londonderry, NH or Salem, NH. Both corridors connect with Boston South Station and Boston Logan International Airport.

After choosing the route, check the current official schedule, confirm whether your trip serves South Station, Logan or both, then review ticket notes. Some trips require online or advance ticket purchase. Some trips are operated by Concord Coach Lines, so the bus may not always say Boston Express on the outside.

๐Ÿ’ก 30-second travel rule

For airport trips, check five things before leaving: route, departure stop, Logan terminal pickup or drop-off note, ticket status and service notice. This prevents the most common Boston Express mistakes.
