## Description

Few Colombian airports illustrate the limits of mountain aviation as plainly as Manizales' La Nubia. Perched at 6,871 feet with a short runway and frequent fog, it supports only EasyFly's seven-times-weekly hop to Bogotá. The airport carries no air freight: despite sitting in the Eje Cafetero coffee belt, the region's coffee leaves by road for the seaports of Buenaventura and Cartagena. Time-sensitive shipments are channelled through Pereira's Matecaña or Bogotá instead.
