Southwest Airlines Flights: Boston to Baltimore

Southwest Airlines on this route

Southwest Airlines is confirmed to operate on the Boston to Baltimore route, a no-frills carrier selling a single economy cabin with optional extras like priority boarding and seat selection. The route is 578 km with a typical flight time of 1h 25m.

As a short-haul, low-cost route, expect a single economy cabin, no complimentary meals, and boarding organized by group unless you pay for priority. Baggage beyond one small personal item is usually a paid extra.

Check-in and boarding

Most airlines, Southwest Airlines included, offer online check-in (usually opening 24–48 hours before departure) and a mobile boarding pass, alongside traditional airport check-in and bag drop desks. Arriving with an online boarding pass and no checked baggage is typically the fastest way through the airport — check Southwest Airlines's specific check-in window and any airport-specific requirements before you travel.

Cheapest time to book

As a general industry pattern (not specific to this route or airline), fares tend to be lowest roughly 4–8 weeks before departure for short-haul routes, and slightly earlier — around 2–3 months out — for long-haul.
