What BOG to DFW looks like
The BOG to DFW sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Bogota BOG to Dallas DFW is a long haul sector of 3,933 km by great circle, flown nonstop about once a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 3,933 km, 880 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 5h 14m.
Bogota BOG is a large airport in the network held here, 102 scheduled destinations and 538.2 departures a day. Dallas DFW has 287 destinations and 1,102.3 departures a day.
Dallas runs one hour behind of Bogota in January and no time shift at all in July, because the two ends do not change their clocks together.
The pair sits inside the Americas, a corridor where the site already publishes 13 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.
Who flies the sector, and how often
Average daily frequencies on BOG to DFW from the scheduled route statistics, both directions, with the operating carriers named.
| Direction | Flights a day | Flights a week | Operated by |
|---|---|---|---|
| BOG to DFW | 1.86 | 13 | American Airlines, Avianca, Gol |
| DFW to BOG | 1.86 | 13 | American Airlines, Avianca |
3 carriers are recorded on the sector, so a missed departure is normally a rebooking rather than a lost day.
Between them the two directions put about 26 departures a week on BOG to DFW, which is the number that decides whether a seat can be found today or on Thursday.
The clock from collection to signature
The same ground timings the route calculator starts from, applied to the 5h 14m block time on BOG to DFW. Change any of them in the tool further down and the total moves with them.
| Stage | Allowed | Elapsed |
|---|---|---|
| Collection and the run to BOG | 90 min | 1h 30m |
| At BOG before departure | 180 min | 4h 30m |
| BOG to DFW in the air, estimated | 314 min | 9h 44m |
| Formalities at DFW | 90 min | 11h 14m |
| Delivery run in Dallas | 45 min | 11h 59m |
| Door to door | 719 min | 11h 59m |
On the desk standard ground timings, ninety minutes to collect and reach the airport, three hours at the airport before departure, ninety minutes of arrival formalities and a forty five minute delivery run, the door to door figure for BOG to DFW is 11h 59m.
A courier who leaves Bogota at 09:00 local is on the ground in Dallas at about 13:14 local and at the door by 15:29 the same day.
Working backwards from a six in the evening handover in Dallas, the last useful departure from Bogota is around 11:31 local.
When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 30 of them join BOG to DFW.
| Connecting at | BOG to hub, flights a day | Hub to DFW, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cancun CUN | 3.86 | 6.01 | 3,935 | 7h 02m |
| Houston IAH | 2.29 | 18.58 | 3,947 | 7h 06m |
| Montego Bay MBJ | 0.57 | 0.86 | 4,077 | 7h 13m |
| San Jose SJO | 3.43 | 1.14 | 4,122 | 7h 16m |
| San Salvador SAL | 3.43 | 2.29 | 4,212 | 7h 23m |
| Guatemala City GUA | 3.14 | 1.14 | 4,243 | 7h 25m |
One nonstop a day means one chance a day, so the connections below are what a consignment that arrives at BOG in the afternoon actually flies on.
30 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Cancun CUN, where the weaker of the two legs still runs 3.9 times a day.
Through CUN the routing covers 3,935 km against the 3,933 km nonstop track and takes about 7h 02m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 60 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 48m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Houston IAH at 7h 06m and Montego Bay MBJ at 7h 13m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.
If nothing suitable leaves Bogota, Medellin MDE is 215 km away by great circle and carries 39 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.
If nothing suitable leaves Dallas, Dallas DAL is 18 km away by great circle and carries 190 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for BOG to DFW in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
