Transportation

Getting to Buffalo

Buffalo is accessible from throughout the United States via the New York State Thruway (I-90), from Canada via the Queen Elizabeth Way (QEW) and by railroad via Amtrak from Chicago and New York City.

 

Buffalo Niagara International Airport is located just fifteen minutes east of downtown Buffalo. With approximately 85 daily nonstop flights to 28 airports, BUF traditionally handles about five million passengers annually (pre-pandemic level). Major carriers are Delta, Southwest, American, JetBlue, United and Frontier.

 

Getting Around Buffalo

 

Getting around Buffalo and its suburbs is easy using ride-sharing services like Uber or Lyft. Or make use of the Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority (NFTA) Metro Bus and Rail system. The Metro Rail runs along Main Street from the KeyBank Center to the South Campus of the University at Buffalo, with several stops in between. The train is free while traveling above ground.

 

However, if your ride takes you past the Theatre District, down into the subway, there is a small charge. Bus stops are found on almost every City of Buffalo street corner and many other spots throughout the region. Bus schedules are available at all transportation centers, the Buffalo Niagara Convention Center and many local banks. Or maybe you’re looking for a limo ride or car rental while you’re in town. See listings below for more information.
