Step by step
- Send your flight and the event
Kickoff time and your landing time are what dispatch plans against.
- Build in game-day traffic
The 25 minute figure is the quiet-day drive. Game day is heavier and the plan accounts for it.
- Agree the drop-off point
Drop-off is as close to the venue as game-day traffic and road closures allow, confirmed before you travel.
Game day is a different drive
Orchard Park is a straightforward 25 minute trip most of the time. On a Bills game day it is not, because traffic and parking demand around the stadium climb sharply in the hours before kickoff.
The practical answer is to leave earlier rather than to route cleverly, and to accept a drop-off point that is walkable rather than pushing into the closest possible spot.
Groups travelling for the game
Parties attending together can request group transportation, with two minivans covering up to 12 so the group arrives as one. That is usually the point on a game day, since splitting across vehicles in heavy traffic means arriving at different times.

Yes. Two minivans travelling together cover parties up to 12, so everyone arrives at the same time.
