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. Airport transfers to city center destinations include authorized taxis, ride-hailing apps, shared colectivos, and private transfer services. Journey times vary significantly based on traffic conditions, particularly during rush hours when the winding mountain road can become congested.
