    About the Woodstock to Buffalo Airport trip

    Getting from Woodstock, Ontario to Buffalo Niagara International Airport means about 121 miles (194 km) of driving and a border crossing. Woodstock sits between London's airport and Hamilton's, and for many US flights, Buffalo offers more choice than either.

    Your driver meets you at home, a hotel or the office, whether that's homes near the Toyota plant, the Southside Park area, Pittock Lake or Ingersoll and the surrounding county, and takes Hwy 403, which begins at the 401 just east of Woodstock, to Brantford and Hamilton, then the QEW to the border. Expect about 2 hours 30 minutes of driving plus the border; we time the pickup from your flight.

    Woodstock is where the 403 begins, which makes it one of the more direct starting points in southwestern Ontario for a trip to Buffalo.

    Route and timing

    • Woodstock is where Hwy 403 splits from the 401, so the drive is direct; most of the variability is in Hamilton and at the bridge.
    • Long weekends and school holidays bring longer lines at the Niagara bridges, so we add extra time on those dates.
    • After the bridge, the last stretch to BUF on I-190 and I-290 or Route 33 is usually quick, though winter weather can slow it down.

    Border crossing, passports & NEXUS

    • There are two good crossings between Woodstock, 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.
    • 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 Woodstock 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 Woodstock 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
