Travelers can check live security waits at seven Logan checkpoints and, starting June 1, screen bags in Framingham before a secure bus ride.
- On Monday, Massport launched a pilot program in Framingham, Massachusetts, allowing Delta and JetBlue passengers to clear security off-site before traveling directly to Boston Logan Airport gates.
