Union Leader - Manchester-Boston: It just flies off the tongue - Thursday, Apr. 20, 2006 Manchester New Hampshire Airport, sometimes Manchester International Airport, has renamed itself Manchester-Boston Airport. Predictably Boston is having http://news.bostonherald.com/localRegional/view.bg?articleid=135869, but the Manchester Union-Leader thinks it's a good idea. I live 10 miles (and a $3 toll) from Logan, about 2 miles from the Logan Express terminal at the Anderson Regional Transportation Center, but the last two times I've flown it's been out of Manchester, and I expect on the next rare occasion I will also drive north. It's more miles, but it takes about as long, and parking is a lot easier and cheaper. Like Green, Worcester and sometimes Hanscom, Manchester is a very reasonable regional alternative to overcrowded Logan. They're all in ZBC, the FAA's Boston Area ARTCC, which has long been called Boston even though it's in Nashua, New Hampshire, and no matter how they label it, that airport is MHT to me.
