Routes to Colombia
Our catalogue lists 4 routes to Colombia from 4 Mexican airports, totalling 36 weekly departures across 3 airlines. Distances run 2,278 to 3,624 km, and the country appears with 1 airports in the catalogue.
| Route | Airlines | Freq/wk | Lowest fare (20 Jul 2026) | Guide |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ciudad de México (MEX) → Bogotá (BOG) | AM, AV, Y4 | ~21/wk | — | MEX-BOG |
| Guadalajara (GDL) → Bogotá (BOG) | AM | ~4/wk | — | GDL-BOG |
| Monterrey (MTY) → Bogotá (BOG) | AM | ~4/wk | — | MTY-BOG |
| Cancún (CUN) → Bogotá (BOG) | AV | ~7/wk | $2,804 MXN | CUN-BOG |
The corridor that sets the price floor. MEX-BOG is the highest-frequency route to Colombia at ~21 weekly departures, and that is usually why it is cheapest: it has the most seats competing. If your city is not Ciudad de México, compare your direct route against reaching that corridor first by road or domestic flight.
How these routes are counted. They are the pairs with a Mexican origin airport and a destination in Colombia present in our catalogue, one-way; weekly frequency adds up departures from every carrier on the pair. It is not a complete map of connectivity between the two countries: pairs we do not cover editorially, and pairs that exist only with a connection, are out of scope.
Airlines to Colombia
3 airlines cover the Mexico-Colombia routes: 2 full-service and 1 low-cost and allowances from 0 to 25 kg. 1 of them are registered in the destination country, which changes the rights regime that applies on the return leg.
| Airline | Type | Alliance | Economy baggage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Aeromexico (AM) | full-service | SkyTeam | 25 kg |
| Avianca (AV) | full-service | Star Alliance | 23 kg |
| Volaris (Y4) | low-cost | no alliance | 0 kg |
What does apply on departure from Mexico. Mexico’s Ley de Aviación Civil (Art. 47 Bis), enforced by AFAC and PROFECO, covers flights taking off from Mexican territory regardless of the airline’s nationality: a delay over 4 hours attributable to the carrier entitles you to at least 25% of the ticket price, and from the first hour the airline owes assistance that escalates with duration. Keep the boarding pass and the purchase receipt — a claim stands on those two documents.
The destination’s own airlines. Avianca are registered in Colombia. On the return leg they answer to their own country’s regulator, and they usually run more of their own frequencies at the destination airport, which matters when someone has to be rebooked. On the outbound leg from Mexico they are subject to Art. 47 Bis like everyone else.

Check the current amount before paying. The consular fee and stay limit above were checked against the official source on 2026-10-23. Consulates revise those amounts without notice and publish no change calendar, so confirm the current figure at the official source on the day you pay. A receipt issued at the old rate is neither refunded nor credited — it is simply paid again.
The right order: document first, ticket second. A cheap fare does not survive a pending immigration formality. The airline will not refund a non-refundable ticket because your visa was denied or delayed, and the change fee usually exceeds the saving you were chasing. Buy once the document is issued, or buy a changeable fare and accept that the premium is the price of the risk.
When to buy
With data across 2 months on the routes to Colombia, the lowest observed floor falls in Sep 2026 at $1,901 MXN and the highest in Aug 2026 at $2,815 MXN. These are minima detected by the collector, not averages and not bookable fares.
Book 6–10 weeks ahead. Fares climb in December, Holy Week and summer, when demand rises. See month-by-month seasonality in each route guide above. That window is a general Mexican-market rule of thumb, not a measurement of this route: our series records observed prices, not the lead time at which each ticket was bought.
| Month | Observed floor on routes to Colombia |
|---|---|
| Aug 2026 | $2,815 MXN |
| Sep 2026 | $1,901 MXN |
Buying window: a general market rule of thumb. As a general Mexican-market rule of thumb — not a measurement of the routes to Colombia — booking runs 4 to 8 weeks ahead on ordinary dates and 8 to 12 weeks for December, Holy Week and summer. Our series records observed prices, not the lead time at which each ticket was bought, so no figure on this page measures that window.
Why those three peaks and no others. December, Holy Week and summer concentrate family and leisure travel at once, and in those windows the airline no longer needs low fares to fill the aircraft. Outside them the usual pattern rewards midweek departures and avoiding Friday evening and Sunday, the two moments when most people compete for the same seat.

Departing from another city is a total-cost decision. The fare gap between departure airports for Colombia only pays if it beats the ground transfer, the preceding domestic flight and the hotel night an early departure sometimes forces. Reaching the airport by road also adds a risk the airline does not carry: miss the international flight in traffic and the ticket is not refunded.
The departure airport changes more than the price. It changes which airline is available, and with it the included allowance; it changes frequency, and with it the rebooking room if something breaks; and it changes the realistic departure hour, which on an early flight decides whether you need to sleep near the airport. Read the table by frequency before fare: the origin with the most departures is usually also the one that best absorbs a disruption.
