## Description

Few Colombian airfields carry as much history with as little traffic: Tunja opened in 1955 yet spent some four decades without scheduled operations, and a 2022 test flight underlined how rare arrivals remain. Perched at 8,940 feet in the Boyacá capital, the runway today serves air taxis and private and business aviation rather than airlines. With Bogotá roughly two hours away by road, freight bypasses Tunja entirely and consolidates at Bogotá El Dorado (BOG), the country's main cargo base. For logistics planners the field is a general-aviation reference point, not a shipping option.
