Nantucket Memorial is one of the busiest airports in New England in summer, about 10 minutes from town.
The airport’s 6,300-foot runway suits jets up to super-midsize. Summer weekends bring heavy private traffic from New York and Boston.
Fog can roll in quickly, especially in late spring and early summer.
Which airport is best depends on where you are going on the ground, the time of day and the aircraft.
