Rafael Núñez International Airport (CTG) serves Cartagena as the main international gateway and a mix of leisure and domestic traffic, with regional carriers and a number of international low-cost and full-service airlines operating seasonally. It sits about 6–10 km from the historic Old City, often a 15–30 minute taxi ride depending on traffic; airport shuttles and local buses can be slower. Taxi fares to downtown typically run in a modest range, while private transfers and app-based services cost more but can be quicker and more convenient. Pros: compact terminal, straightforward arrivals and close proximity to tourist areas; cons: can be busy during peak season and has limited late-night connectivity compared with larger hubs.

São Paulo–Guarulhos International (GRU) is the city’s main international gateway and a full-service hub usually handling long-haul and many regional carriers, making it typical for premium and connecting traffic. Located about 25–30 km northeast of downtown São Paulo, travel times can range from roughly 30–60 minutes by taxi or rideshare depending on traffic, with fares often higher than inner-city trips; the Airport Bus Service and EMTU buses connect to major terminals for a lower-cost option, and the commuter rail/metro link (Airport Express) can take around 40–50 minutes. GRU tends to be pricier but more comprehensive in amenities and flight options; it’s convenient for international connections but can feel busy and spread out, so allow extra time for transfers and security checks. São Paulo–Congonhas (CGH) functions mainly as a busy domestic and regional airport serving short-haul flights and point-to-point business traffic, typically favored by full-service and some low-cost domestic carriers. Sitting close to the city center in the Moema/Ibirapuera area, it’s usually only 8–10 km from downtown, with taxi or rideshare trips often taking about 20–35 minutes depending on congestion; city buses and occasional shuttle services provide lower-cost alternatives. Congonhas is generally perceived as convenient and time-saving for domestic travelers due to proximity and frequent flights, but its urban location can lead to noise restrictions and occasional delays during peak hours, and terminal space can be compact compared with larger airports. Viracopos–Campinas (VCP), located about 90 km northwest of São Paulo, is often positioned as a cargo and secondary international option that can offer more budget-oriented fares on some carriers and charters. Transfer times to central São Paulo typically run from 60–90 minutes by car or airport shuttle depending on traffic, with coaches and private transfers as common low-cost choices; driving can be a practical option for people coming from the Campinas region. Viracopos can be a cost-effective choice for those flexible on location, featuring less congestion and simpler navigation, but the longer distance to São Paulo and fewer frequent public-transport links can reduce convenience for time-sensitive itineraries.

In different months, ticket prices from Cartagena to Sao Paulo vary: minimum — $354 (September 2026), maximum — $390 (August 2026). Typically, the flight costs $372–$390.
