The full 2024-25 shuttle schedule appears below. Please read all the details at the bottom of this page for important information about our airport/Amtrak shuttle service.
Leave enough time for connections: Most airlines recommend arriving at the airport at least two hours before your scheduled flight time. Please add and extra hour for the Shuttle trip to the Bufalo Airport.
The information below is from earlier in the 2024-25 school year. It will be updated over the summer for 2025-26.
Students purchasing tickets for the RETURN shuttles should provide the ticket office with their airline name, flight number and scheduled arrival time (if arriving at the airport) or their train number and arrival time (if arriving at the Amtrak station.) This way, the shuttle driver can monitor arrival information, and if your plane or train is delayed, the shuttle will wait for you.

The Airport/Amtrak shuttle is operated by Executive Transportation Services of WNY/Giorgio's Limousine (a regional transportation company), which is contracted by the Fredonia Campus to shuttle students to and from the Buffalo Airport and the Depew Amtrak Station.* This shuttle operates around all class breaks including Fall Break, Thanksgiving Break, Winter Break and Spring Break. Students should look for a small black bus, multi-passenger van or large SUV (size of vehicle depends on how many students are riding at the same time). The driver has a list of all scheduled passengers and their cell phone numbers.
To order shuttle tickets, please call (716-673-3501) or stop by the Fredonia Campus Ticket Office during our open hours. We are open M-W-F from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The shuttle price for the 2025-26 academic year is $25 for the one-way fare to/from Buffalo Airport or Depew Amtrak station. There are no round-trip tickets; each direction must be purchased separately. Reservations and payment must be received at least 72 hours (3 days) in advance of departure time. All tickets have the Giorgio's Limousine dispatch number (716-683-7455) printed on them. If a given shuttle does not show up when it should, call this number.
At the time of purchase, ticket buyers should provide the Fredonia Campus Ticket Office with each passenger’s official Fredonia email address and cell phone number. This is we can contact passengers should the need arise. All sales are final. NO REFUNDS.
Reservations are required; if there are no advanced reservations placed for a particular run, the Shuttle will not operate. Passengers are limited to one piece of luggage plus one personal item such as a purse or backpack. (One musical instrument case can be extra.)
All airport pick-ups are at the limousine pick-up area outside and just beyond baggage claim number 4. (See illustration below.) All train station pick-ups are at the Depew Amtrak Station.#
Shuttle OUT times are from the Williams Center bus shelter on the Fredonia Campus. Please allow approximately one hour to reach the Depew Amtrak station and 15 additional minutes to reach the Buffalo airport. Shuttle return times are from the Buffalo Airport, with the shuttle then going to the Depew Amtrak station and departing from there about 15 minutes later.
*If there is sufficient demand, a stop may be added for the Metropolitan Transportation Center (the central bus station) in Downtown Buffalo.
#There are two Amtrak stations in Buffalo. The shuttle travels to the suburban Depew station. If you need transportation to or from the Exchange Street Station in downtown Buffalo, please contact the Fredonia Campus Ticket Office for tickets on Coach USA ($6.20 one way) or inquire if a shuttle stop has been added for the Metro Transportation Center which is a ten-minute walk for the Exchange Street Station.
