Best charging spots
These are the most reliable places to charge at Buffalo Niagara International Airport:
- Concourse midpoint food area near gates 10–14 — dedicated USB-A/C kiosk towers
- Window-counter seating, full terminal length — outlet strips at all counter positions
- Pre-security main hall — outlet strips at public bench seating
Dedicated charging stations
Dedicated charging kiosk towers with USB-A and USB-C are near the main food vendor areas at the concourse midpoint; the pre-security main hall has outlet strips at public seating.
Bring your own charging cable — dedicated kiosk stations at US airports provide the power outlet but not the cable. USB-A, USB-C, and standard 120 V outlets are the most common configurations.
Pro Tip
BUF is a compact 24-gate terminal where no gate is more than a 5-minute walk from a charging kiosk tower — the concourse midpoint food area is the best charging hub if gate-area outlets are occupied.
