About the Cambridge to Buffalo Airport trip
Getting from Cambridge, Ontario to Buffalo Niagara International Airport means about 100 miles (162 km) of driving and a border crossing. With Pearson an hour or more away in GTA traffic, Cambridge travellers often find BUF just as practical, especially for US flights.
We pick you up anywhere in Cambridge, Ontario, including Galt, Preston, Hespeler or the Cambridge Centre area. Your driver takes the 401 east to Hwy 6, or Hwy 24 and the 403 through Brantford, then Hamilton and the QEW, crosses into New York and drops you at departures. The driving alone is about 2 hours 15 minutes, so we work back from your flight to set the pickup time.
Cambridge was formed from three towns, Galt, Preston and Hespeler, and locals still use the old names.
Three towns, one pickup

No airport parking
No car to leave in a BUF lot while you're away, and no shuttle from the far lots.

Route and timing
- Cambridge sits on the 401, and the stretch toward Hwy 6 is the slowest part at rush hour; the route then runs through Hamilton to the QEW.
- Long weekends and school holidays bring longer lines at the Niagara bridges, so we add extra time on those dates.
- Once you're across, BUF is a short drive east of the city. We still build in a cushion so you reach check-in without rushing.
Border crossing, passports & NEXUS
- There are two good crossings between Cambridge, Ontario, and Buffalo: the Peace Bridge at Fort Erie, and the Lewiston-Queenston Bridge at the end of Hwy 405. Your driver checks the waits and picks one.
- You clear US entry at the bridge, not at the airport, so a flight within the US is simply a domestic departure from BUF.
- On the Cambridge to Buffalo Airport trip, every traveller needs a document the US accepts at land crossings, such as a passport, a NEXUS card, or an enhanced driver's licence for eligible US and Canadian citizens. Canadian and US citizen children under 16 can show a birth certificate.
- The NEXUS lane can only be used when every person in the vehicle, including the driver, is a NEXUS member; otherwise we time your Cambridge pickup for the regular lanes.
Requirements depend on citizenship and age. Check the official guidance before you travel: US CBP (entering the US) · CBSA (entering Canada) · Live border wait times
