Transportation from the City Center to Bogota Airport
You can use taxi or public transportation to reach El Dorado International Airport, which is 11 km from Bogota city center.
Minibuses named Buseta are quite common and economical. It is possible to reach Bogota Airport by taking the bus labeled "Aeropuerto" on Calle 19, which is very close to La Candelaria. In addition, airport buses pass through the main street named Avenida 26.
One of the alternatives used to reach the airport from the city center is the municipal buses with the line number P500. Cash payments are not accepted on these buses. The kiosks and newsstands in the city center sell tickets. However, the easiest method is to buy Tullave Card. It takes an average of 50 minutes to reach the airport with the P500 buses from the city center. This time may vary depending on the traffic situation.
Another public transportation option is Transmilenio's K10 buses. You can take this bus to the Portal El Dorado stop and reach Bogota Airport with the airport's free green bus Alimentador. Depending on the traffic, it may take 45 minutes to go from Bogota city center to Bogota Airport by bus, but it is a much more economical method than a taxi.
Also, taxis in Bogota are known to be unsafe, so it's wiser to opt for reliable apps like Uber rather than taking a taxi from the street.
