Terminal E and Logan Airport’s 100th birthday collided.

Maybe not the best term for an airport, but the brass came out for the twin occasions Friday. The renovation of Terminal E, the airport’s international terminal, included approximately 390,000 additional square feet to create a unified building.

“Logan International Airport is a critical economic engine for our state. These fantastic new upgrades at Terminal E are going to supercharge that engine and help to elevate our image on the world stage,” said Gov. Maura Healey.

“Logan Airport is a gateway to opportunity and fosters connections for residents, businesses, universities and organizations in the global economy,” said Mayor Michelle Wu.

Some of the new amenities include a mothers’ room and sensory room.

The sensory room, as Massport put it, “has various interactive stations that focus on balance, light therapy and cognitive/memory improvement, including a room that replicates an airplane cabin to help passengers acclimate themselves with the often stressful experience of flying.”

Bon voyage.
