Medellín is served by two main airports with distinct roles.

Olaya Herrera (EOH) sits much closer, around 3–5 km from downtown, and is primarily a domestic/regional airport used by budget and regional operators, often seen as a quicker option for internal Colombian flights. Ground transport options include taxis, official shuttles, and occasional public buses; journey times and costs can vary by traffic and route.
