Availability and suitability depend on the child's size, the specific restraint, vehicle configuration and the manufacturer's requirements. If your child needs an exact model, fit or specialty restraint, bringing your own seat can be the most predictable option.

Plan the Vehicle Around Your Whole Family

Count Every PassengerAdults, babies, toddlers and older children all count when selecting the vehicle.
Count Every BagInclude checked luggage, carry-ons, backpacks, boxes and other large items.
Tell Us About the StrollerFull-size strollers and travel systems can use significant cargo space.

Child Restraint Rules Can Vary by Jurisdiction
Child-restraint requirements can differ depending on where the vehicle is operating, the child's age and size, and the legal classification of the vehicle. New York and Ontario do not use identical rules, and taxi/livery exemptions may apply differently. This page is not a substitute for current government guidance or the child-seat manufacturer's instructions.
BUF Buffalo Airport Taxi® recommends that parents and guardians request the appropriate restraint in advance or bring their own properly suited restraint when they prefer a specific model or fit. Travelers remain responsible for making sure the restraint selected for their child is appropriate and used according to applicable requirements and manufacturer instructions.
