Flight changes in Bogota

Well it all depends if you are flying Cali as a connecting flight, if this is so then the staff at Cartagena should tag your baggage straight through to Cali.

As both of these routes are operated by Avianca at the Puente Aereo terminal, then you should just go through the connecting flights area. However if your flight were delayed coming into Bogota then you could miss your flight. But they would put you on the next flight to Cali.

Actually I think that you'll find that Avianca does not operate a direct flight from Cartagena to Cali, therefore all flights will be Cartagena-Bogota then Bogota-Cali so any ticket bought from any travel agent should be one that the connection is physically possible.

sandramoreno80 is correct. All Avianca flights from Cartagena/Cali stop in either Bogotá or Medellin. Late flight means no connection but they will get you on the next flight to Cali

it should be ok since you are not switching terminal.. or the flight is not late. I took avianca r/t from Cali to CTG, it change in Bogota, coming back from CTG at BOG i actually had to exit the security area and had to go back thru security near the gate for Cali. It had about an hour so it was no problem.

Easy connection! There are two terminals in Bogota and one is for Inernational arrivals except for Aerorepublica flights. If you are on Avianca from Cartagena to Bogota to Cali you will arrive at the second terminal called puente aero if I remember right. This terminal as someone said above is for domestic flights like you are taking for AVIANCA only. 30 minutes will be more than enough time to connect for there are only like 8 or so gates and if for some reason you miss your flight there will be more as mentioned above. No problem!
