Chick-fil-A just opened at Boston Logan Airport and another is already coming
Travelers flying in or out of Boston can now check in a new bag — one that’s filled with a Chick-fil-A signature chicken sandwich and waffle fries.
The popular chicken chain opened its first-ever location at Boston Logan Airport inside Terminal A on Thursday, Oct. 9.
Located after security check, the new Chick-fil-A offer its Original Chicken Sandwich, Waffle Potato Fries, signature lemonade and more.
The stand is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, starting at 4 a.m. Monday through Saturday.
At the end of Thursday’s grand opening event, Massachusetts Port Authority CEO Richard Davey announced that a second Chick-fil-A location will open Terminal E in early 2026. This Chick-fil-A will therefore serve international travelers passing through Boston.
Chick-fil-A has opened several locations around Massachusetts in recent months. The fast food giant debuted its first delivery-only kitchen in Boston in September, its new location at Patriot Place in Foxborough on Oct. 2, and its Hudson location on June 5.
In April, Chick-fil-A announced plans to open 12-15 more stores across Massachusetts in the next few years. The new restaurants will create an estimated 1,600 new jobs by 2027. There are now more than 20 Chick-fil-A locations in Massachusetts.

Will Moore scored the go-ahead goal late in the second period and the Boston College men’s hockey team outlasted the Gophers 3-1 on Thursday at 3M Arena at Mariucci.
Visiting the Gophers for the first time since October 2013, the 11th-ranked Eagles (1-1) outshot the home team 34-19. Drew Fortescue’s empty-netter with 24 seconds remaining sealed the victory.
“We just can’t connect dots right now on a consistent basis,” Gophers coach Bob Motzko told reporters after the game. “The last thing we can do is be frustrated. That would just be wasted energy right now because there is too much to look forward to when we get to better hockey.”
Generating offense again was a problem for the Gophers on Thursday. They got their only goal from Brody Lamb with 61 seconds left in the first period. That tied the score at 1-1, after BC had scored first with 5:51 left in the period on a goal by Will Vote.
The Eagles, who opened the season with a 4-3 loss to No. 13 Quinnipiac on Oct. 3, took a 1-0 lead with 5:51 left in the first period on a goal by Will Vote.
Moore put BC up for good with 3:19 left in the second period when he redirected a shot from defenseman Lukas Gustafsson past Gophers goalie Nathan Airey.
The Gophers began the third period on the power play after Gustafsson was whistled for a penalty with four seconds left in the second period — the first and only penalty of the game — but were unable to get the tying goal. The Gophers were 0-for-4 on the power play in the series with Michigan Tech last weekend.

Seven of the 13 protesters accused of fighting with Boston police during a pro-Palestinian rally that turned violent Monday were arraigned Thursday at Boston Municipal Court, with the judge setting high bails for many of them.
The protesters were arrested Monday night after the rally, which began at Boston Common, moved into the street and turned violent. Prosecutor Olivia Izzi said protesters blocked the street, stopping traffic and preventing emergency vehicles from getting through. Izzi said they also attacked police officers, injuring four of them. Another protester, Tufts student Roder Atwood, was arraigned Wednesday on charges he struck a police officer in the face, breaking his nose.
The following were arraigned Thursday:
- Atalanta Carrig-Braun, 20, of Boston
- Osama El Khatib, 26, of Watertown
- Styx Hatch, 19, of Boston
- Haley MacIntyre, 24, of Dorchester
- Jacob Pettigrew, 22, of Malden
- Gabrielle Smith, 28, of Cambridge
- Madeline Weikel, 27, of Watertown
All seven protesters were charged with inciting a riot and face additional charges, including assault and battery on a police officer and interfering with a police officer.
Emerson student accused of inciting riot
MacIntyre, a student at Emerson College, was also arrested last year during a pro-Palestinian encampment on the school’s campus. Her bail was set at $7,500 by the judge.
The judge set high bails for some of the protesters, ranging from $5,000 to $10,000, higher than the prosecution initially asked for. They’ve also been banned from Boston Common and the Public Garden.
“If you violate my order, you’ll spend 90 days,” the judge told the protesters in court.
Police union says violence out of hand
Larry Calderone, the president of the Boston Police Patrolmen’s Association, said he welcomes the judge setting high bail for those in court on Thursday.
“We applaud the judge in this case for taking an aggressive stance for handing out a punishment,” said Calderone. He said violence against law enforcement has gotten out of hand. “If an individual on the street thinks nothing of punching a police officer in the face and assaulting that officer in full uniform, then what does that mean for the general public? What would that individual do to somebody not in uniform?”
The courtroom was packed with both Boston police officers and supporters for the protesters. The supporters for the protesters then held a demonstration in the courthouse hallway. All seven protesters are due back in court on Oct. 31 for pretrial hearings.
