    About the Vaughan to Buffalo Airport trip

    Vaughan is a short hop from Pearson, so BUF is a deliberate choice when a fare or a US route is better from Buffalo. It's about 116 miles (187 km) from the Vaughan Metropolitan Centre to the BUF terminal, with a border crossing on the way.

    Your driver meets you at home, a hotel or the office, whether that's Maple, Kleinburg, Concord or Thornhill, and takes Hwy 400 or 427 south to the QEW, or the 407 ETR west to the 403, then on to Niagara. Expect about 2 hours 25 minutes of driving plus the border; we time the pickup from your flight.

    Vaughan is north of the 401, so the route choice (407 ETR, 427 or 400) makes a real difference to the drive time.

    Route and timing

    • From Vaughan we often use the 407 ETR toll highway to skip 401 traffic, then the 403 and QEW. Hwy 400 and 427 are the other options.
    • Holiday weekends in either country, and summer Friday afternoons, usually mean longer bridge lines. Tell us if you're travelling then.
    • From the border to the terminal is a short highway run; in winter we add time for lake-effect snow around Buffalo.

    Border crossing, passports & NEXUS

    • Leaving Vaughan on the QEW, your driver can cross at the Peace Bridge in Fort Erie or take Hwy 405 to the Lewiston-Queenston Bridge. The choice depends on the posted waits that day.
    • Have everyone's documents in hand as you approach the booth; the officer checks each traveller in the vehicle. After that, BUF is a regular domestic airport for US flights.
    • On the Vaughan 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 Vaughan 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
