I believe that Boston's Terminal A is divided into a main terminal building (Gates A1-12) and a satellite terminal building (Gates 13-22). Delta uses flights in both sets of gates, from a quick perusal of Massport's flights for today.

Is there any logic to which flights depart from the main terminal versus the satellite terminal? Perhaps aircraft type/size? I'm thinking of trying out Delta on the BOS-DUB this summer.

P.S. I noticed that the SkyClub in the satellite terminal closes at 7.30pm, whereas the Dublin flight would be departing at 9.14pm. I am aware that there is a SkyClub in the main terminal too.

Currently the last departure out of the satellite gates is around 7:30pm, so that's why it closes then. With DUB being a 757, which could operate out of either terminal it's tough to say whether DL will extend the satellite SC hours. If I had to guess I would say it'll depart from the satellite and that SC will extend its' hours.
