Medellín is served by two main airports with distinct roles. José María Córdova International (MDE) is the primary international gateway, typically handling most long-haul and full-service carriers and often showing higher fares than the city airport; it sits about 35 km east of downtown in Rionegro. Travel to the city center usually takes 40–60 minutes by taxi or shuttle, with fares commonly ranging from modest to mid-level depending on traffic and service; there are also occasional airport buses. Olaya Herrera (EOH) is a smaller domestic and regional airport closer to the city—roughly 5 km from central Medellín—commonly used by budget and regional operators and can be quicker and cheaper for short hops. Ground connections from EOH include taxis and short transfer times of 15–25 minutes; public bus options may be limited. Pros: MDE offers wider international connectivity and more airline choices, while EOH is more convenient for rapid access to central neighborhoods. Cons: MDE’s distance can mean extra transfer time and potential higher costs, and EOH has fewer long-haul options and limited amenities compared with a larger international hub.
