Booking and Reservation Questions
How to submit a complete and accurate trip request.
How do I book a Buffalo Airport taxi?
Use the online booking form and enter the exact pickup, destination, date, local pickup time, passenger count, luggage, telephone number, email address and flight information when applicable.
How far in advance should I reserve?
Advance booking is recommended as soon as your itinerary is reasonably stable. Early reservations are especially important for late-night pickups, early-morning departures, vans, child seats, holidays, group travel and cross-border trips.
Does submitting the form automatically confirm my ride?
Submitting the form sends your trip for reservation processing. Review the confirmation or booking response you receive. Verify the date, time, pickup, destination, fare, passengers and contact information before travel.
Can another person book transportation for me?
Yes. A relative, employer, travel agent or group organizer may arrange the trip, but the reservation should contain the actual passenger’s name, reachable telephone number, flight and luggage details.
Can I book one-way or round-trip transportation?
Yes. One-way and return transportation may be requested. For round trips, enter each pickup date, local time, address and flight separately so both legs can be reviewed accurately.
