## Description

The only airport in Córdoba able to handle wide-body jets up to the Airbus A330, Los Garzones records 20 to 30 movements a day and ranks among the busiest fields in Colombia's Caribbean region. Avianca, LATAM, JetSMART and Clic Air link Montería chiefly with Bogotá and Medellín. A modernisation programme added a dedicated cargo terminal and Category I ILS, improving all-weather reliability. Belly capacity on these flights carries the region's agricultural output and livestock-sector goods, while general and express freight also moves overland to the Caribbean ports of Cartagena and Barranquilla. Customs are cleared through Colombia's DIAN authority. For forwarders, Montería works as a dependable regional cargo feeder connected to the country's main gateways.
