2022, six years till Terminal E catches up with passenger load? Massport got caught with it's pants down on this one; Terminal E expansion should have been in the works six years ago when the push by Massport to bring more foreign carriers to Logan was happening. Massport seems so timid when ever expansion is needed and it always seems to be playing catch-up.
They got caught with their pants down because they didn't invest a billion dollars on faith that their marketing efforts would not only succeed, but would be such a runaway success that an airline from Norway, operating from Ireland, would like to use Logan as a transfer hub to get people from Britain to the Caribbean?
If they'd tried, we either would have had a good chance of ending up with a Mirabel-style white elephant or they would have built a cheap, ugly building to account for the risk. I prefer it this way. Hopefully, they can plan now with more information so that we end up with an attractive and appropriate facility.
