I'm probably going to fly into buffalo, but wanted to ask a few questions on this forum to some of the better-versed travelers.

I haven't been able to find a rental car yet, as it seems one-way rentals are all booked up from checking a few of the agencies. And some don't seem to allow one way rentals at all. Has anyone had any luck booking at different locations?

Also, if not buffalo, are there any other suggested airports to fly to that I can look into, that could be cheaper and have available car rentals? I saw someone mention Syracuse, so will look into that as well. Any other suggested airports that people have had success with?

Any advice is appreciated.

Thank you!
Check Rochester also. Some people have had better success renting and returning in the city as opposed to airport locations. Others have also had success renting for 4-5 days and returning after one day and only charged for one day. YMMV.
