Boston Subway

How hard is to take a bus from the Black Falcon Pier to South Station to catch the subway?

Not hard. The Silver Line picks up nearby at the Flynn Cruise Terminal and goes to South Station.

Note that the Flynn Cruise Terminal was previously known as the Black Falcon Cruise Terminal.

 

Walk pretty much straight north out of the terminal to the corner of Drydock Ave and Design Center Place.  Catch the Silver Line #2 (SL2) bus.  It will take you to South Station in about 8 minutes (6 stops).  I think the current fare is $2.40.  I believe you can transfer to the Metro (T) without an additional fare if you don't exit the building.

 

If you're trying to get the airport from South Station, you can:

1. Transfer to the Silver Line #1 (SL1) bus, or

2. Take the Metro (T) Red Line 1 stop to Downtown Crossing, change to the Orange Line 1 stop to State, then ride the Blue Line to the Airport, exit and catch an 88 or 33 bus to Logan Airport.  (Obviously it makes more sense to take Silver Line #1 to the Airport.  And no, that's not where you said you were going, but other folks may want to know).

Google Maps describes the journey and options quite nicely

In either direction, SL1 (to and from the airport) and SL2 (from the cruiseport) let you off inside the turnstiles at South Station, so you just walk down to the Redline platform - no additional fare needed.
