Getting from Terminal to Terminal upon Arrival

Postby allovatan » Tue Jul 12, 2011 7:15 pm

We will be arriving at Terminal 2 in October, and need to get to Terminal 3 to meet up with friends and our transfer. Has anyone ever made the journey?

We understand there is a shuttle that will take us from one terminal to another, but honestly, that seems like a bit of a hassle to find the shuttle, wait for it, load luggage on, etc. So we are leaning towards grabbing a drink at the hut just outside the airport and walking over.

Anyone made the walk before? Is it truly 20 minutes as the USA Transfers site indicates?

It just so happens that we know a little bit about this, since the taxi dropped us at the wrong terminal back in May.......

First off..Don't walk it ! This would take waay longer than 20 minutes and may end up being a LOT more hassle than you expected.

Although its no limo service, there is the free shuttle system that stops by each terminal every 20 minutes or so. You load your own luggage and its usually the airport staff that is on the bus.

3rd option is to grab a cab over . This would be the quickest method I think.

Give yourself 1/2 an hour to make the transfer and you'll be fine.

Really Steve? Ugh!!! When we touch down we are both very anxious to get to the resort.

Maybe I'll just spring for the extra and have each of us picked up at our own terminals. We are getting in about 15 minutes apart, and with immigration and customs who knows how in sync our timing will be.

Thanks for the info!!

Hey allovatan,

When in October are you going? We will be there from the 1st to the 8th. I noticed you live in Central MA - we live in Oxford. We're probably neighbors! LOL!

We'll be there from the 14th to the 22nd, so we will miss each other. :(

We are in Hudson, so 20/25 minutes from you all??
