Transportation from the City Center to Córdoba Airport
Córdoba Airport or officially Ingeniero Aeronáutico Ambrosio L.V. Taravella International Airport is also known as Pajas Blancas. The airport, which is approximately 14 km away from the city of Córdoba it serves, is connected to the city center by a good transportation network.
The most economical way to get to the airport from the city center is to take the bus. The bus company named Aerobus Express departs from platform 82 of the bus terminal in the city center and goes to the airport. The flights start at 06.00 and end at 23.45. The frequency of the expedition is between every 30 and 60 minutes depending on the intensity. It takes about 50 minutes to arrive at the airport under normal traffic conditions. Buses have air conditioning. You can buy the necessary ticket for the trip from the AeroBus counters at the bus terminal. Bus stops include Corro, 27 de Abril, Mariano Moreno, Rodríguez Peña, Av. Colon, Atty. Santa Fe and Atty. It's La Voz del Interior.
Municipal bus number 25 takes its passengers from Córdoba city center and goes to the airport. If you are carrying a large suitcase, the bus driver may not accept you on the bus. This bus leaves approximately every 15 minutes.
For a more comfortable journey, you can also go by taxi. There are two types of taxis in Argentina; one of them is the yellow taxis we know. You can stop and get on the yellow taxis where you see them.
The other is green taxis called remis.
You can only call these taxis by phone, and they are more expensive because they provide a better service. Apart from these two types of taxi, you can also call a vehicle from the Uber application, which is frequently used in Argentina. Córdoba Airport is approximately 14 km away and it takes an average of 25 minutes to arrive at the airport by passenger cars.
Transportation from Cartagena Rafael Nunez International Airport to Cartagena City Center
Cartagena Airport is located 6 km from the city center and transportation options include buses, minibuses, taxis and Uber. Getsemani historical city center is the most central place where places to visit in Cartagena are gathered, so most travelers' hotels are located on this side.
You can easily get to Getsemani from Cartagena Airport with the T102, one of the orange and white buses operated by TransCaribe. These buses depart from the airport every 15-20 minutes from 05:30 in the morning until 21:30 at night.
It is possible to go to the city center of Cartagena by taking the T102 from the main street no. 70 just outside the airport. You can buy the ticket directly from the driver, or you can get a local transport card from the airport.
It takes about 20 minutes to get to the city center from Cartagena Airport by bus. When you come to Getsemani, the city center of Cartagena, you need to get off at the Parque Apolo or San Diego stop. When getting on the bus, if you say “Centro” to the driver, he will drop you off at the center.
Taxis are available at Cartagena Airport 24 hours a day, and contrary to rumors, taxis in Colombia are extremely safe. You can get to the city center in 15 minutes with one of the taxis that are waiting as soon as you leave the terminal. Cartagena taxis do not have a meter. Instead, there is a taxi fare vending machine just outside the arrivals terminal. When you enter the address of your destination from the machine, it gives you the fixed taxi fare of that region and prints a receipt. You get into the taxi by showing this receipt to the taxi driver.
Among other taxi-like options, the most used are Cabify and Uber. It is possible to call a taxi from both applications, but the prices are very close to normal taxis and taxi applications do not work very well in Colombia, unfortunately.
Latin American countries also have a dolmuş culture similar to Turkey. Again, you can go to the city center by stopping the collectivo minibuses from the main street outside Cartagena Airport. But it can take up to 1 hour to go to Cartagena city center by collectivo because they are very slow.
Apart from taxi or public transportation options, you can consider the option of private transfer from Cartagena Airport. Although the price is higher than other options, it is a very comfortable transportation method to be met by someone waiting with your name when you leave the arrivals terminal and taken directly to the hotel. There are many companies that provide private transfer services from Cartagena Airport, the fees vary according to the type of vehicle desired, but all of them have air conditioning and water.
