Airport Information
Private Jet Charter to and from Boston Logan International Airport
Boston Logan handles well over 40 million passengers annually across six runways within Class B airspace — yet private travelers operate in an entirely separate environment through Signature Aviation’s dedicated FBO. The longest runway, 10R/28L at 10,083 feet, accommodates the full private aviation spectrum, from a light jet running the Boston–New York corridor to an ultra-long-range jet departing for Paris or Amsterdam. Signature provides a private ramp, dedicated passenger lounges, and direct U.S. Customs and Border Protection access, all independent of the commercial terminal complex. The FAA classifies Logan as operating within one of the Northeast’s most active Class B environments, requiring IFR clearance for all arrivals and departures — coordination Centurion manages as part of every booking.
Massport, the Massachusetts Port Authority, operates Logan and maintains CBP infrastructure around the clock. For international charter flights, General Declaration filing, customs pre-clearance coordination, and passenger manifest submission are handled by Centurion Jets and Signature’s ground team before the aircraft moves. The client boards; the regulatory preparation is already complete.

Why Fly Private to Boston Logan International Airport?
Direct Access to Boston’s Core Business Corridors
Logan sits 3 miles from Downtown Boston and approximately 4 miles from the Seaport District — the city’s fastest-growing commercial concentration. Private travelers arriving through Signature Aviation bypass the commercial terminal entirely, connecting to Boston’s financial sector, the Route 128 technology corridor, and Cambridge’s research and biotech community far faster than any commercial option at the same airport.
On-Site CBP Eliminates the Secondary Airport Diversion
International arrivals at BOS clear U.S. Customs and Border Protection without diverting to a secondary gateway. Every documentation requirement — General Declaration, passenger manifests, advance customs coordination — is handled by Centurion Jets and Signature’s team before the aircraft lands. The client clears customs at Logan and proceeds directly to their ground connection.
Every Aircraft Class From One Airport
With runways exceeding 10,000 feet and no runway constraints limiting heavy or ultra-long-range jet operations, private jet charter at BOS accommodates any mission profile — from a light jet on a quick New England run to a Global 7500 configured for a nonstop transatlantic departure. Aircraft selection is dictated by route and passenger requirements, not runway limits.
Northeast Corridor Hub With Transatlantic Reach
Boston’s geographic position makes BOS one of the most operationally efficient departure points in the Eastern US. Flights to New York run under 45 minutes. Transatlantic routes to Paris and Amsterdam are well within range for heavy and ultra-long-range configurations. For travelers whose schedules span both short domestic hops and intercontinental legs, having one full-capability hub eliminates the need to switch airports.
Popular Private Jet Routes To/From Boston Logan International Airport

Aircraft Options for Boston Logan International Airport
Logan’s runway infrastructure supports every aircraft category in private aviation. The selections below are matched to the airport’s operational profile and the routing patterns most common from BOS.
- Citation M2 Gen2 — Light jet — 5–6 passengers — Range ~1,550 nm — The right choice for short New England and Northeast corridor sectors where quick positioning and minimal block time are priorities. Logan’s runway capacity is well above what this aircraft requires.
- Phenom 300E — Mid-size jet — 7–9 passengers — Range ~2,010 nm — Strong selection for Boston to the Southeast and mid-Atlantic; combines fuel efficiency with a productive cabin for executive travel on routes up to three hours.
- Challenger 350 — Super-midsize jet — 8–10 passengers — Range ~3,200 nm — The recommended platform for transcontinental sectors from BOS; stand-up cabin, flat floor, and the range to reach most of the continental US non-stop from Logan.
- Falcon 900LX — Heavy jet — 12–14 passengers — Range ~4,700 nm — The correct aircraft when the mission calls for transatlantic reach. Three-engine reliability and intercontinental range make this a strong BOS–Europe platform.
- Gulfstream G700 — Ultra-long-range jet — 14–19 passengers — Range ~7,500 nm — Selected when nonstop capability to Eastern Europe, the Gulf, or Asia is the mission requirement. BOS is well-positioned as a departure point for truly long-range global operations.

Every element is confirmed before the departure date — the client is not involved in the operational process.
All operators presented by Centurion Jets are independently vetted through our safety standards, cross-referenced against Wyvern and ARG/US registry data. Safety vetting is a prerequisite on every booking, not an option.

Frequently Asked Questions
What distinguishes flying private at Boston Logan from using a dedicated general aviation airport like Hanscom Field?
Boston Logan provides capabilities that smaller GA airports cannot match: on-site U.S. CBP for international arrivals and departures, runway infrastructure that supports every aircraft class including ultra-long-range jets, and a fully staffed FBO with round-the-clock operations. Hanscom Field (BED) is the more efficient choice for domestic trips serving the western suburbs and the Route 128 corridor. For international itineraries, transcontinental routes, or large-cabin operations, Logan is the correct gateway.
Which aircraft works best for the Boston to New York sector?
For the Boston–New York corridor — typically BOS to Teterboro — a light jet or midsize jet is the right selection. The Citation M2 Gen2 and Phenom 300E both handle the sector in well under an hour and provide appropriate cabin space for 1–9 passengers. Larger configurations are available but rarely represent the best cost-to-mission ratio on this specific route unless the aircraft is continuing to a second destination.
How does Centurion Jets manage permit and documentation requirements for transatlantic departures from BOS?
Transatlantic departures from Logan require advance FAA international flight plan filing, General Declaration preparation, overflight permit coordination for restricted or controlled airspace en route, and pre-coordination with destination handling agents. Centurion Jets manages every element of this process — the client provides routing requirements and travel dates; Centurion handles the regulatory and logistical preparation entirely before the departure date.
What should I budget for a private jet charter from Boston to Europe?
Heavy jet charters from BOS to Western Europe typically range from $45,000–$70,000 one-way, depending on the aircraft, destination, and market conditions at the time of booking. Ultra-long-range configurations for routes extending into the Eastern Mediterranean, Gulf, or beyond can run $65,000–$130,000 or more. Positioning costs, international handling fees, and fuel surcharges factor into the final figure — Centurion Jets provides an itemized breakdown at the quoting stage.
Can private jets access Logan’s longer runways, or is the assignment determined by ATC?
Runway assignments at Logan are issued by Boston ATCT based on wind conditions, traffic sequencing, and aircraft performance requirements — private jets operate within the same ATC system as commercial aircraft. The longest runway, 10R/28L at 10,083 feet, is available for private operations and is standard for heavy and ultra-long-range jets. Light and midsize jets are operationally capable on shorter runways, though active runway assignment is always ATC-directed. Centurion Jets confirms any performance-specific runway requirements with the operator during the booking process.
Is Boston Logan equipped to handle group charters?
Logan is fully capable for group charter operations. Signature Aviation’s FBO provides lounge and handling capacity for larger passenger groups, and the airport’s runway infrastructure supports heavy jets and purpose-configured group aircraft. Centurion Jets coordinates group charter logistics including capacity-matched aircraft, coordinated ground transportation, and catering facilitation through Signature’s team.
Is overnight parking available for non-tenant charter aircraft at BOS?
Not automatically. FAA-published airport remarks state that no overnight parking is available for non-tenant charter aircraft without prior Massport permission. Centurion Jets coordinates this in advance whenever an overnight stay at Logan is part of the mission profile.
