Holiday Airport Travel at Logan: How Early to Book Thanksgiving & Christmas Rides

By LimoMass

Holiday travel piles onto a handful of days. Wednesday, November 25 is the peak outbound day before Thanksgiving and the heaviest driving day of that week. Sunday, November 29 is the peak Thanksgiving return and, in recent years, the single busiest travel day of the year at airport checkpoints. Tuesday, December 22 is the peak outbound day in the Christmas window, and Saturday, December 26 through Tuesday, December 29 is the heavy return stretch, when delays stack up fastest. Thursday, December 24 and Friday, December 25 are lighter in the terminals but thinly staffed everywhere else — its own kind of risk if a ride falls through.

Our normal advice is to book at least 24 hours ahead, with same-day rides welcome when a car is available. For Thanksgiving week and the Christmas window, book your Logan ride as soon as your flight is booked — ideally two to three weeks out for the peak days. Early booking gets your pickup time rather than the leftover one and fixes the price before you travel. Cancel or change free of charge up to 24 hours before pickup for trips inside Massachusetts and up to 48 hours before pickup for trips outside Massachusetts. If a flight is delayed, early, canceled, or rescheduled, tell us as soon as you can and we adjust the booking at no extra charge; your flight is tracked in real time on every airport pickup.

LimoMass prices distance trips by a simple distance formula, and the price shown when you book is the price of the ride. Up to 20 miles: Sedan $110 · Executive Sedan $125 · SUV $130 · Executive SUV $150. From 21 to 25 miles add $10; from 26 to 30 miles add $20. Stretch Limo and Van trips are quoted by phone — call (617) 483-5676.

Past 30 miles, each extra mile adds $4.50 for the Sedan, $5.20 for the Executive Sedan, $5.00 for the SUV, and $5.40 for the Executive SUV, and the fare rounds to the nearest dollar. Most South Shore towns to Logan fall in the flat and stepped ranges, and Cape towns price by the per-mile part of the formula; enter the actual addresses in the booking form for an instant, exact quote. Extra stops are $15 each, child car seats are $15 each for up to 3, and Meet & Greet is $60 for Logan arrivals only — your chauffeur waits inside the terminal with a name sign instead of at the designated meeting point.

Hourly hire is the other shape when the day is more than an airport run. Rates are $80 per hour for the Sedan, $85 for the Executive Sedan, $95 per hour for the SUV, and $100 for the Executive SUV, with a 3-hour minimum. Stretch Limo and Van hourly hire is quoted by phone. Gratuity is never added automatically, and tolls and parking are at cost. There is no holiday surcharge: the price on November 25 is the same price as any other week.

Book for the luggage, not just the people, because holiday loads are bigger than normal loads. The Sedan and Executive Sedan carry 3 passengers and 2 bags; the SUV and Executive SUV carry 6 passengers and 5 bags; the Stretch Limo carries 8 passengers and 4 bags; and the Van carries 12 passengers and 6 bags. If you are between sizes, size up — a car that fits everyone and everything once beats two cars and a negotiation in the driveway.

Coming home is the harder half. We track your flight, allow a 60-minute wait grace period on airport arrivals before wait time is billed, and meet you at the designated meeting point with a name sign, or inside the terminal with Meet & Greet. Non-airport pickups carry a 15-minute grace period. Book the return ride at the same time as the outbound. LimoMass is open 24 hours every day, including Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and New Year’s, and serves 40 towns and areas across the South Shore, Greater Boston, and Cape Cod — from Boston, Quincy, Braintree, Weymouth, and Hingham out to Hyannis, Falmouth, Chatham, and Provincetown.

Frequently asked questions

How early should I book a Logan ride for Thanksgiving?

As soon as your flight is booked — ideally two to three weeks ahead for peak days such as Wednesday, November 25 and Sunday, November 29. Booking early secures the pickup time and fixed price, and you can cancel or change free of charge up to 24 hours before pickup inside Massachusetts, or 48 hours before outside Massachusetts.

How does payment work?

Every booking shows its fixed price before you confirm — the price you see is the price for the ride. Gratuity is never added automatically — you can add an optional tip for your chauffeur when you book online, or hand it to your chauffeur on the day; every tip goes to your chauffeur. Once online card payment is live on this site, the card you book with is the card any cancellation or no-show fee is charged to. Until then, bookings are reserved when you submit them and payment is arranged with us directly.

What is your cancellation policy?

Cancel or change free of charge up to 24 hours before pickup for trips inside Massachusetts, and up to 48 hours before pickup for trips outside Massachusetts. Cancellations inside those windows are charged the full fare. To cancel or change, call (617) 483-5676, email [email protected], or use Manage Booking on this site.

How long will my chauffeur wait?

We allow a grace period before wait time starts: 15 minutes for non-airport pickups, and 60 minutes for airport arrivals, domestic and international alike. After the grace period, wait time is billed at the hourly rate for your vehicle — $80 per hour for the Sedan, $85 for the Executive Sedan, $95 per hour for the SUV and $100 for the Executive SUV — prorated to the time waited.
