Buffalo-Lancaster Regional Airport (ICAO: KBQR, FAA LID: BQR, formerly D77) is a public use airport located three nautical miles (6 km) northeast of the central business district of Lancaster, in Erie County, New York, United States. It is privately owned by Lancaster Airport Inc.

The runway at Buffalo-Lancaster Airport is currently being extended from its current length to 5,500 feet planned to be completed in 2010, which may allow it to accommodate larger airplanes and private jets. The runway is also an emergency landing site for Buffalo-Niagara International Airport.
