Pickup time depends on terminal.

The BOS-BON hop seems a tough one given the timing.
Similar question

will be over night in BOS
looking at the Downeaster to POR
I see that the but has a lot more frequency but...

I just don't like the idea of the bus

have you taken it?

do they even have bathrooms on the bus?

where in POR does it drop you off? Will be staying in the Old Port

I will also need to rent a car [Avis] when I get to POR although not necessarily on the DOA
