Facility Overview
PreFlight Airport Parking BOS is a dedicated off-airport parking facility located at 111 Eastern Avenue in Chelsea, Massachusetts, serving travelers flying out of Boston Logan International Airport (BOS). The facility features a secure, multi-level covered parking garage alongside outdoor rooftop/surface spaces, offering protection against New England winter snow and harsh summer heat. Standard passenger cars, midsize crossovers, full-size SUVs, and standard light-duty pickup trucks can easily be accommodated within the garage, with typical vertical clearance limits of approximately 7 feet. Over-height vehicles and specialized commercial vans should check clearance specifications or utilize open-air surface parking bays where available.

Visitor & Driver Tips
Travelers are strongly advised to reserve parking in advance, especially during holiday peak seasons, school vacation weeks, and summer weekends when Logan Airport lots reach capacity. Plan to arrive at PreFlight approximately 20 to 30 minutes before your desired airport terminal arrival to allow time for ticketing, parking, and shuttle loading. Keep your parking ticket or digital barcode confirmation accessible for seamless exit upon return, and follow the clear instructions on your claim check for ground transportation shuttle pickup at your terminal\'s designated curb.
