How to read a Buffalo Airways flight number

Every Buffalo Airways flight number starts with J4, followed by up to four digits: that is the number on your booking confirmation and boarding pass. In flight plans the same flight carries the ICAO prefix BFL, and controllers address it as "Buffalo". One thing to watch: codeshares. A ticket sold by another airline can be operated by Buffalo Airways and vice versa; live tracking follows the operating carrier's number, so if your search comes up empty, check the "operated by" line on your booking.
