CLO Cali

How deep the CLO board really is

The table above says where a courier can fly from CLO. This reads the same 29 destinations back for the questions a dispatcher asks second: how much of the board rests on one airline, how much of it runs less than daily, whether the return leg is as thick as the outbound and what the clock here does to a Gulf working day, all of it computed on 2026-09-07 from AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics.

• 17of the 29 destinations are flown by one airline
• 16destinations run less than once a day
• 3destinations have four or more departures a day
• 37.9%of the destinations name Avianca, the largest presence here

Who holds the departures at CLO

Ten airlines appear on the CLO board and they do not hold it evenly. Avianca is on 11 of the 29 destinations, 37.9 per cent of them, and on 3 of those it is the only airline flying the sector. The destinations it appears on carry 64 of the 83.6 departures a day this airport files, though other airlines fly some of the same sectors, so read that as reach rather than as a share of the aircraft.

The next largest presence is SATENA on 9 destinations. 3 of the 10 airlines at CLO appear on a single destination each, which is the long tail every airport carries, and none of it is a rebooking option when the sector you need is the one that fell over.

That is a middling concentration at CLO: one airline on 37.9 per cent of the destinations and the other 62.1 per cent spread across 9 airlines. A cancellation inside the Avianca network is often survivable inside the same booking, but on the 18 destinations Avianca does not touch, a rebooking means moving to a carrier the desk has to check for a through fare first.

How much of the CLO board is daily

Of the 29 destinations, 13 are flown at least once a day and 16 are not, 5 of them running once a week or less. The median destination on the CLO board is flown 6 times a week.

An average of 0.14 flights a day is the schedule statistic, and it is worth translating it before anything is promised to anybody: CLO to Nuquí (NQU) is about one a week, so a missed departure there is not a delay of hours, it is the next slot.

The five busiest destinations carry 60.3 of the 83.6 departures a day, 72.1 per cent of the whole board. More than half of everything that leaves CLO is aimed at those five places, so the depth on the board above is thinner than the destination count suggests, and a hand carry that is not going to one of them is planned around a single departure time.

The ten destinations out of CLO where one airline holds the sector and files fewer than seven departures a week, with the weekly figure taken as the average daily rate multiplied by seven rather than as a fixed timetable. 4 further destinations sit in the same position and are listed in the board above.

The way back from CLO

The desk holds the return direction for 12 of the 29 destinations, and a courier plans the way back on those figures rather than on the outbound. On none of those 12 does the return run more than a quarter thinner than the outbound, so a turnaround through CLO is a question of hours rather than of whether an aircraft exists.

It runs the other way as well: Miami (MIA) files 2.4 a day back into CLO against 1.3 outbound, which is the shape that strands a courier at this end rather than at the far end.

The clock at CLO

CLO keeps America/Bogota time, nine hours behind Dubai all year.

When it is 09:00 on a Dubai working morning it is 00:00 at CLO, and a nine to six day at each end does not overlap at all, so an instruction written in Dubai is read here on the following working day unless somebody is woken up.

Where CLO turns up on the rest of this site

The airport also sits behind the Colombia country desk, which sets out the customs practice, the working week and the road legs behind this airport.

The site publishes 3 airport pair pages that start or end at CLO, each with the distance, the block time, the carriers on the sector and a door to door clock. The busiest are Cali to Bogotá (BOG), Cali to Mexico City (MEX) and Cali to Santiago (SCL).

Ten courier postings name CLO as the airport a courier here flies from: Cali, Pereira and Manizales.

To price a movement rather than read the board, the route calculator opens with CLO already set as the origin, and it works out the flying time, the distance and the delivery hour for any of the 29 destinations above.
