Since the last time I was here, the parking lot has gotten a makeover. It's been repaved, the…read moreentrance where you paid cash has been replaced by a parking smartphone application, and the entrance and navigation through the lot have been redone. It's actually tougher to get to the entrance now if you're coming southbound because of the cross-traffic coming out of the lot and the 2 poorly timed traffic light sets. I wish the inside/T-stop part could get a face-lift too. Maybe over time. That would include the rest rooms. My opinion is still that the only way I'd want to go in there is with an open petri dish for a science project.

I also enjoy the design of the large pipes "linking" the Northbound and Southbound levels. Also worth mentioning that I'm always a fan of stations where you can access both directions (ND&SB) after passing the fare gates. It's never Finding out you just paid for a train going the wrong direction! Where this station struggles is in the need for a little TLC. The platform was generally clean, but the surrounding walls could surely benefit for a long-overdue cleaning. Another point is the escalator. While I would not call it shaky, it did not offer a very smooth ride. Just in case, hold on to the handrail, it's a long way down otherwise.

The social anxiety lords have answered our silent petition not to participate in the grueling task…read moreof attempting to navigate through the incessantly crowded traffic of Boston by providing us humble New Hampshirites the convenience that is known as the Boston Express. Seriously, this extremely rare form of New England mass transportation provides mental solace for those of us who would otherwise become quite rattled by heavy city traffic. No longer do I have to drive myself to the airport (or anywhere else in Boston, for that matter) when I could simply catch the bus. The bus itself comes equipped with a restroom in the back, plus complimentary WiFi. Although...the actually efficacy of the latter remains debatable. Most of the time, I just use the 5G that's available, since that often ends up being somehow faster than whatever lame ass WiFi they've got going on the bus. You purchase your tickets online where they also feature their entire bus route schedule and stops, which is pretty convenient. Prices are more than fair and they even offer various discounts for certain qualifying individuals (I.E. military, students, senior citizens, etc). Honestly, folks...this one's a no-brainer and I wish I had taken advantage of this option right from day one. For reference, I did the math comparison of using one of the Boston airport parking lots for, say...a week. I would have spent over $700 parking my own car! Compare that to the 40 bucks I spent for a one-way trip for 3 persons; one of whom got to ride for free because he's under 16. Noice! Oh, pro tip I discovered via pure dumb luck: if you're on a return flight and you're not sure if you'll make the next bus run, purchase a ticket for later than you think you'll need. You can still scan that ticket for an earlier bus ride if you happen to arrive sooner than anticipated. The reason this will work (usually) is because the bus tickets are not actually reservations for seats (this is why it pays to read the fine print at the bottom of the ticket). See, the bus rides are basically "first come, first serve". So, whilst you're still paying for the ride itself, there's nothing stopping you from getting on sooner than your reserved time. Just make sure the ticket is for the same day and the driver usually doesn't care. Needless to say, this will be my go-to method of getting to and from Boston airport from now on. Boston Express gets 5 extremely relaxed and relieved passengers riding stress free out of 5.

It is also close to shopping and restaurants. The neighborhood has improved significantly since the Orange Line got here but it's still up and coming so you'll need to watch your surroundings carefully as you would in any big city. Jackson Square is fully handicapped accessible with an elevator from street level (which is where the ticketing concourse is located) down to the platform level. They do have an escalator but it's up only, which is mildly annoying. Audible and visual announcements of the next train tell you when you need to get ready to head towards Oak Grove or Forest HIlls. Jackson Square is between Stony Brook (outbound) and Roxbury Crossing (inbound).

I always wish that they'd do a better job with the signage and directions in the MBTA stations, but this one is fairly simple and straight-forward. They have an escalator and elevator to help you to the platform. I do enjoy the fact that this stop has lots of public works of art, from paintings knocking off Warhol, to some foreign, exotic looking art and some brass faces. The cool thing about this place is that there's a free linear park/playground/gym right behind this place, which makes it a great place to hang out. Unfortunately, there are no public restrooms here.

The five of us were all in agreement we wanted lobster rolls for lunch at Seaport. As for sightseeing we decided to head down to Faneuil Hall and walk part of the Freedom Trail. From the Embassy Suites by Hilton at Boston Logan airport it was less than 10 minutes to Airport station. We cut through the park and headed to the station on foot. Standing at the ticket machine we were trying to decide how many rides we wanted to buy. Fortunately there was a MBTA agent on hand. He suggested we buy a one day unlimited Charlie card for $11.00. We each purchased one. Then we took the blue line to get to Faneuil Hall. Later we also took the SL3 to get to Seaport from Airport station. The Charlie Card was perfect. And every driver we encountered was friendly and very helpful.
