Planning

Plan around local peaks in Boston

Weather and season: Winter storms (December to March) can disrupt operations. We build buffer time into routings and switch to alternative airports when needed.

Holidays: In the USA, Thanksgiving, Independence Day (4 July), Christmas and the Q4 peak season can slow down customs, airlines and trucking. Book early and send documents in advance around these dates.
