Spain is part of the US Visa Waiver Program. Spanish passport holders can enter the US for tourism or business for up to 90 days with an approved ESTA (Electronic System for Travel Authorization). Apply at esta.cbp.dhs.gov at least 72 hours before departure. The fee is USD 21. The ESTA is valid for 2 years or until your passport expires, whichever comes first. It covers multiple entries.
Your passport must be machine-readable and, for VWP travel, must be an ePassport (the kind with the chip symbol on the cover). Spanish passports issued after 2006 meet this requirement. The 90-day ESTA stay cannot be extended and cannot be changed to another visa status from inside the US. If you need more than 90 days, apply for a B-1/B-2 visa at the US Embassy in Madrid.
US border officers have wide discretion. Have your return flight, hotel address, and a general itinerary ready. ESTA approval does not guarantee entry. The CBP officer makes the final decision at the port of entry. Global Entry (USD 100, 5-year membership) speeds up arrivals significantly at US airports if you travel frequently.
Aerobus express coaches run every 5 minutes from Plaça de Catalunya to both T1 and T2 (35 min, €6.75 one-way / €11.60 return). Departures from 5:00am to 1:00am.

Silver Line SL1 (free from Logan) runs to South Station in 15–20 minutes, connecting to the Red Line subway and Amtrak services. The Massport Shuttle connects all Logan terminals and the remote parking areas; it's also the transfer between terminals. Water taxi to Long Wharf (downtown) is $12 and runs seasonally; check weather and schedule.Taxis to downtown Boston cost $30–45 (tunnel toll included in meter). Ride-hails pick up at designated zones; follow the Logan app directions to avoid the main curb chaos. MBTA Blue Line (Airport station, free shuttle from terminals) reaches downtown in 10 minutes but requires a separate transfer. Amtrak Acela to New York departs from South Station (2.5h, from $49).
Humid continental climate with significant maritime influence. Winters (December–March) bring regular Nor'easters. These coastal storms that dump heavy snow and produce high winds, frequently closing Logan for hours and causing mass cancellations. Ice storms hit several times each winter. BOS is one of the most weather-disrupted major US airports in winter.
Summers are warm (22–29°C) with humidity and afternoon thunderstorms causing July–August delays. Hurricane remnants reach New England in September–October. Spring and fall are mild (8–18°C) but unpredictable. Logan's harbor location means it runs windier than inland readings suggest. Factor this into small aircraft routing.
