About the Corning to Buffalo Airport trip
The Elmira Corning airport is close but has a small schedule, so many Corning travellers fly from Buffalo. The trip is about 122 miles (196 km), and a private car means no long-term parking bill at BUF and no driving home tired after a late flight.
We pick you up anywhere in Corning, including the Gaffer District on Market Street, the Corning Museum of Glass area, hotels near the museum or Painted Post. Your driver takes I-86 west to I-390 north, then the Thruway west to Buffalo and drops you at departures. The driving alone is about 2 hours 45 minutes, so we work back from your flight to set the pickup time.
Corning is on the Southern Tier Expressway (I-86), which links it to I-390 and the route north to the Thruway.

Route and timing
- Traffic is light on I-86 and I-390; winter weather on the hills is the main variable.
- Holiday weekends bring heavier traffic on the interstates, so tell us if you're travelling on one.
- The New York State Thruway is tolled and uses cashless tolling, so there are no toll booths to stop at.
