When arriving at Rhode Island T. F. Green International Airport (PVD) in Providence late in the evening, travelers might notice two Boeing 767-300 aircraft on the runway. These planes are part of the New England Patriots' fleet and are used to transport players and personnel across the country during the football season.
Interestingly, these jets are also utilized for humanitarian missions and by other sports teams, such as when the Los Angeles Dodgers flew back from New York City after winning the 2024 World Series. The question arises: why do the Patriots use T. F. Green instead of Boston Logan International Airport (BOS)?
One reason is that "getting to T. F. Green is actually quite a bit easier than getting to Boston Logan." The Patriots' home stadium, Gillette Stadium, is located in Foxborough, which lies approximately equidistant from both airports. However, traveling from Foxborough to Boston Logan involves navigating through busy traffic areas in Boston.
