It is? Boston is better than ever. It's a huge metro area without a legacy hub. Fares are reasonable to pretty much anywhere. International expansion has been incredible. BOS is a great place to fly from if you're not wrapped up in a single airline's loyalty program. I don't see much sadness in the corridors of BOS (except gates C40-42).
