Traveller Comments....
"I found one of those all-American benches with rigid armrests apparently inspired by Guantanamo Bay restraint chairs" (Skipper)
"the lights glared all night, and they kept up with the security announcements despite the fact that nobody but me and the cleaners was in the airport." (?)
"there were floods of arm-rested chairs, thinking of my 18 hour layover I thought I was going to die" (Joshua B)

Thanks to Sleepinginairports we had a tip for sleeping at Logan. There are wooden rocking chairs in the long walkway between terminal A and C. Put a daypack behind my lower back, snall pillow for head and feet up on a second chair. With earbuds and my jacket for a blanket got some sleep. It was quiet and not too bright (can sit between lights, or maybe unscrew a couple) but it was too cold to stay more than a couple of hours there and my son had had enough as he couldn't handle the chairs and slept on a blanket on the uncarpteted floor. We moved to departures terminal A, tried out the rolling chairs but they only roll while being pushed from behind while holding open the wheel locking mechanism. Tried sitting up in the armed bench seats, with earbuds and blindfold; good for a nap. Security opened around 4am and the lights brightened and loud PA announcements started. Inside security were lots of armed bench seats. Lying on one's side, using a pillow and with earbud in opposite ear, got decent sleeps.
Saw one person under the escalator in the A-C walkway. Would be a nice quiet, dark spot but you'd want some form of mattress on that hard floor.
The last review for this airport was in 2011. Have you been there recently? Tell us about it!
