Chow Down in the Danger Zone: Your Guide to Airport Al Dente in Fallout 4
So you've decided to turn Boston Airport into your own personal wasteland oasis? Fantastic! Open skies, panoramic views of irradiated suburbs... what's not to love? But hold on a minute, gotta address the elephant in the terminal (or lack thereof) - food. Because let's face it, nobody wants to be "hangry" while dodging feral ghouls in a decommissioned jetway.
Fear not, intrepid settler! This guide will have you feasting like a pre-war Brahmin in no time. Just remember, this ain't your mama's grocery store. We're talking post-apocalyptic ingenuity here, folks.
How To Get Food At Boston Airport Fallout 4 |
Option 1: Rads to Riches (Well, Sort Of)
- Scrounging 101: The airport itself might be a culinary wasteland, but the surrounding area offers some scavenging opportunities. Keep an eye out for pre-war food stashes in wrecked terminals, old vending machines (Nuka-Cola for breakfast? Why not!), and maybe even the odd feral ghoul clutching a half-eaten Molerat steak (hey, beggars can't be choosers).
Word to the Wise: Radscorpion omelets are definitely not recommended.
QuickTip: Reflect before moving to the next part.
Option 2: Settling for More Than Just Settlers
- Supply Line Shenanigans: This is where things get interesting. Boston Airport, unfortunately, doesn't have built-in farms. No sunshine on hydroponics here. But fret not, because with the magic of supply lines, you can turn another settlement into your wasteland breadbasket! Simply assign a settler to a supply line connected to a food-producing settlement, and voila! Provisions magically appear at your shiny new airport digs.
Pro Tip: Sanctuary Hills with a couple of mutfruit plants? Consider it done.
Option 3: Mods to the Rescue (For You PC Wastelanders)
- The Mod Squad Assembles!: Feeling a little peckish and tech-savvy? Then the wonderful world of Fallout 4 mods awaits! There are mods out there that allow you to build planters anywhere, even that fancy control tower at the airport. Now you can grow your own mutated Mutfruit right next to your vertibird landing pad!
Disclaimer: Be sure to grab mods from reputable sources, or you might end up with Radroach roommates instead of Radishes.
QuickTip: If you skimmed, go back for detail.
So You've Gotten Yourself a Wasteland Feast? Great! Now Let's Talk FAQs:
How to avoid Rad poisoning from scavenged food? Carry Rad-Away! It's a staple for any self-respecting wastelander.

Tip: Summarize the post in one sentence.
How many settlers do I need to staff a supply line? Just one! They're surprisingly good at hauling taters across the wasteland.
How do I know if a mod is safe to use? Read reviews and comments from other players. A good mod will have a clear description and a solid reputation.
Tip: Read actively — ask yourself questions as you go.
How do I convince my settlers to stop eating all the good stuff? Well, that's a whole other wasteland adventure, my friend. Best of luck!
