    About the London, Ontario to Buffalo Airport trip

    For Southwestern Ontario travellers, Buffalo Niagara International Airport (BUF) is one of the options to compare for US flights, alongside London's own airport and Toronto Pearson. Pearson is closer, about 107 miles from London. BUF is about 152 miles (244 km), roughly 3 hours 10 minutes of driving, but fares and routes differ, and that's often what decides it.

    We pick up anywhere in London, whether that's Old North, Byron, Masonville, downtown or near Western University. Your driver takes Hwy 401 east to Woodstock, Hwy 403 through Brantford and Hamilton, then the QEW to the Niagara crossings and on to BUF. On a trip this long, the pickup time matters, so we work it out from your flight.

    Route and timing

    • Working backward from your flight: about 3 hours 10 minutes of driving, plus a border buffer, plus the airline's check-in time. That usually puts the pickup well over five hours before departure.
    • There are ONroute service centres along Hwy 401 if anyone needs a stop.
    • Lake-effect snow squalls can affect the 401 and 403 in winter. For winter departures we watch the forecast and adjust.

    Border crossing, passports & NEXUS

    • We cross at the Peace Bridge or the Lewiston-Queenston Bridge after the QEW, depending on posted wait times.
    • US Customs and Border Protection inspects everyone at the bridge. Have each traveller's document ready to hand over.
    • On the London, Ontario 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 London 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
