Airport Overview

Alfonso Bonilla Aragon International Airport（CLO） is the principal international gateway serving Cali and the Valle del Cauca region of Colombia. It is located between Cali and Palmira, in the fertile Cauca River valley, and functions as an international passenger and cargo airport with an important diversion and alternative-routing role for Colombia’s aviation network. The supplied airport profile identifies international connectivity with the United States, Spain, Ecuador, Panama and Peru, together with cargo facilities including a 747 freighter dock, bonded warehousing, an in-transit area, free-trade-zone access, cargo handling equipment, secure valuables storage and an express and messenger centre. Our platform treats it as a regional international gateway suitable for planned exports, imports and time-sensitive cargo, subject to current carrier acceptance, customs status and handling confirmation.

Cargo Facilities & Services

Freighter interface: The supplied airport profile describes a 747 freighter dock. Aircraft type acceptance, parking position and current handling availability must be reconfirmed for each movement.
Bonded and in-transit handling: Bonded warehouse and in-transit areas can support cargo awaiting customs processing or onward movement, subject to the appointed ground handler and Colombian customs procedures.
Free-trade-zone connectivity: The profile identifies free-trade-zone access. Our service team will verify the applicable zone, cargo eligibility, documentary route and transfer controls before booking.
Handling equipment: Cargo loading and unloading vehicles and equipment are described in the profile; heavy, oversized or special-handling shipments require advance confirmation of equipment and limits.
Special cargo support: Public-health officials, secure storage for valuables, and an express and messenger centre are identified. Availability, temperature capability and acceptance rules remain shipment-specific.

Routes & Transit Times

The airport profile identifies non-stop international markets including the United States, Spain, Ecuador, Panama and Peru. Actual cargo capacity may differ from passenger connectivity and must be checked against the current airline schedule.
Shipments may move on direct services, passenger-aircraft belly capacity, freighter capacity or an onward connection through another Colombian or international gateway, depending on commodity, dimensions and season.
Our platform quotes transit expectations only after confirming space, cut-off, customs status, transfer time and destination handling. No fixed transit time should be assumed from the published passenger route map.
Peak agricultural seasons, weekend or holiday schedules, security screening, customs inspection, weather, capacity controls and irregular operations can materially affect the final delivery plan.

Primary catchmentOur team serves Cali, Palmira and the wider Valle del Cauca commercial and manufacturing belt, with final delivery arranged according to consignee location and road conditions.

Agriculture and perishablesThe fertile Cauca River valley supports time-sensitive agricultural supply chains. Fresh, floral, chilled or frozen cargo requires pre-alerts, packaging validation and confirmed temperature-handling capability.

Manufactured goodsIndustrial components, machinery parts, consumer products, textiles and general commercial cargo may be routed through the airport when dimensions, security and airline acceptance are suitable.

Healthcare and high-value cargoPharmaceuticals, diagnostic materials, electronics and valuables require documented security, handling, insurance and temperature or custody controls where applicable.

Operations & Compliance

Cut-off control: Airline and terminal cut-off times vary by flight, commodity and handling route. Our service team obtains the operational cut-off in writing and builds time for screening, truck arrival and document review.
Dangerous goods: A complete shipper’s declaration, correct UN classification, compliant packaging, marks and labels may be required. Batteries, chemicals, aerosols and equipment with lithium batteries must be disclosed before quotation.
Temperature-sensitive or live cargo: Pre-booking is essential. We verify acceptance, packaging, handover windows, temperature range, health documentation and any inspection requirements; a generic “priority” service does not guarantee an uninterrupted cold chain.
Customs and delivery: Commercial invoice, packing list, air waybill, permits and importer or exporter information must match across documents. Customs examination, bonded transfer and final truck collection can extend release time and should be planned with the local broker.

Shipping Tips

Send our service team the commodity, HS classification, pieces, dimensions, gross weight, ready date, temperature range and whether the cargo is dangerous, valuable, perishable or oversized before requesting space.
Reserve capacity early for agricultural peaks, urgent medical cargo and freighter-dependent shipments. Ask us to compare direct uplift with a controlled connection when the first option lacks confirmed capacity.
Use export-grade packaging with accurate piece marks and dimensional data. For perishables, validate coolant, ventilation and handling instructions against the selected carrier’s acceptance policy.
Prepare consistent invoice, packing list, permits, origin information and consignee customs details. Our team can coordinate pre-alerts, broker handover and road delivery, but release remains subject to authorities and the carrier.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Alfonso Bonilla Aragon International Airport handle international air freight?

Yes. The supplied airport profile describes international cargo capability and international market connectivity. Our platform confirms the current airline, handling route, capacity and customs requirements for each shipment rather than relying on passenger-flight availability alone.

Is cargo accepted around the clock?

The supplied profile describes the airport as one of the few secondary Latin American airports operating 24 hours a day. Cargo terminal receiving, airline acceptance and customs availability may follow separate schedules, so our team confirms the applicable window before dispatch.

Can the airport handle a 747 freighter?

The supplied profile identifies a 747 freighter dock. Aircraft acceptance, dock availability, payload restrictions and current ground-handling arrangements must be reconfirmed for the specific operation.

What should be arranged for refrigerated or perishable cargo?

Provide the commodity, temperature range, packaging design, handover time and required delivery condition at quotation stage. We will seek written confirmation of acceptance and handling; airport availability alone does not constitute a guaranteed cold-chain service.

What is the best alternative if capacity is unavailable?

Our service team can assess another Colombian gateway, an international connection or a different departure date. The recommendation depends on destination, customs route, commodity restrictions, road transit and total landed transit time.
