BOS terminal E to A
Is two hours a realistic connection time from an Icelandair KEF-BOS flight that arrives at terminal E to a Delta Connection flight that departs out of terminal A?
I do have global entry, but I will be checking one bag (no way around it, due to containers with liquids).

In my opinion walking is easier unless you are overloaded with bags. All the terminals connect thru Central Parking on Level 4. So just follow the signs to Central Parking and then follow the signs to A.
At busy times the buses can be quite full and a hassle but they will work too.
2 hours is definitely enough time with Global Entry. Otherwise, it will still be doable but if it is a busy time you might have to hustle a bit.

For these questions, it always helps to know whether the person has one ticket/PNR or two separate ones.

Once you exit customs, take the escalator up two levels following the signs to Central Parking. That sky bridge and hallway, if you keep going past the garage, then leads over to the A terminal. Before they started building that second garage, it was a great place to look at the planes in terminal E.

Don't forget the DL bag drop deadlines, especially if you cannot check the bg through and drop it just after customs. I suspect (but did not check) that Icelandair doesn't interline with DL.

This is two tickets and two PNRs, I could not get DL to issue a ticket on FI, they insisted on crossing the Atlantic on DL/KL/AF and then connecting somewhere in Europe to an FI flight. The MQMs would've been nice, but the fare got really stupid really fast.
