|---|---|---|---|---|
| Boston Logan International Airport | BOS | 39 km (24 mi) | 10,083 ft | 20 ft |
| Laurence G Hanscom Field (regional) | BED | 18 km (11 mi) | 7,011 ft | 133 ft |

Runway length is a practical tell: at 10,083 ft, BOS can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 20 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
