Medellín is served by José María Córdova International Airport (MDE), located 29 km southeast of the city center in the municipality of Rionegro. The airport sits at a higher elevation in the mountains, requiring travelers to descend into the Aburrá Valley to reach downtown Medellín.

Journey times vary significantly based on traffic conditions, particularly during rush hours when the winding mountain road can become congested.
