Documents
Do I need a passport to go to Buffalo airport from Toronto?
Yes. Every Canadian rider needs a valid passport or a NEXUS card to cross into the United States by car. Keep it in your carry-on, because the flight home to Canada needs it too.
The Government of Canada's United States travel advice covers the land crossing. Canadians 16 and older must show a valid passport or a trusted traveller card such as NEXUS.
Coming home, the government page on how to return to Canada covers the documents returning Canadians use. Travellers who are not Canadian should check the US entry rules for their own passport before the trip.

What the fare covers
Are tolls and the bridge included in the Buffalo fare?
Yes. Highway tolls and the bridge crossing are inside the flat fare, so a slow line at the border does not change the price. Waiting for a late flight is free too.
The Niagara bridges only collect a toll from cars heading into Canada, so the trip down to Buffalo crosses without one. On the way home, the toll is already in the fare you were quoted.
Limo Airport Toronto runs this border trip day and night, for early departures and late landings alike.
Pickup spot
Where is the limo pickup at Buffalo airport?
Short answer
At the arrivals curb on the lower level, right outside baggage claim. Buffalo Niagara's accessibility page says cars may stop there only to load or unload, and any car left waiting in the pickup lanes is ticketed.
So your driver holds in the airport's free cell phone lot on Buell Avenue. Ring 416-886-9711 when you have every suitcase, and the car heads around to the arrivals curb.
On the drive north, each rider hands a travel document to the Canadian border officer at the booth, so keep them in reach rather than packed in a suitcase.

A family is better off in the Suburban or the Escalade, with 6 or 7 seats and space for 6 bags. Groups up to 12 fit in the Sprinter, and child seats are $15 each.
