this is the other part of the story that I never got quite right - why did they begin their trip in Maine?

Good question; all of them or just some?

Back then, it was easier I think, to make it through smaller airport security.

One of the terrorists lived in Portland. I think Atta and some others flew to Maine to meet him, then they went on to Boston. Seems an unnecessary risk to take two flights when Boston is only 2 hours away by car.
