Hondarribia to Bogota (EAS–BOG) — Airlines, Schedules & Connections

Spanish passport holders enter Colombia visa-free for up to 90 days. Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months. Immigration stamps you in at the airport with no advance paperwork required.

The initial 90-day stay can be extended once for another 90 days at a Migracion Colombia office. The extension costs around COP 232,000. You can also request the extension online through the Migracion Colombia website. The total allowed stay is 180 days per calendar year.

Colombia requires travelers to complete the Check-Mig online form within 72 hours before departure. Fill it out at apps.migracioncolombia.gov.co. It is free and takes about 5 minutes. Airlines may check for the confirmation email before boarding.

Official yellow taxis at the curb use a pre-paid voucher system from the booth inside arrivals. Buy a ticket before exiting (COP 25,000–45,000 to most city neighborhoods, roughly $6–11). This eliminates fare negotiation and overcharging risk.Uber operates in a legal grey area in Colombia; InDriver is a common alternative. TransMilenio bus from the airport terminal (COP 3,000) is cheapest but crowded and luggage-unfriendly. Rental car desks are in the arrivals hall. The airport is about 15 km west of the city center via Av. El Dorado.

Bogotá sits at 2,600m elevation. The airport climate is cool and changeable year-round regardless of the tropical latitude. Temperatures at the airport hold between 7–19°C in all months. There is no true summer or winter. Two wet seasons (March–May and September–November) and two drier seasons alternate.

Afternoon thunderstorms during wet seasons can cause delays. Morning fog is the most common disruption risk year-round, due to the Bogotá savanna's topography. Pack a light jacket. The altitude makes evenings noticeably cold even in the warmest months. Acclimatise slowly if arriving from sea level.
