'''El Dorado International Airport''' {{airport codes|BOG|SKBO}} is an [[international airport]] serving [[Bogotá]], the capital of [[Colombia]], and its surrounding areas. The airport is located mostly in the [[Fontibón]] district of Bogotá, although it partially extends into the [[Engativá]] district and through the municipality of [[Funza]] in the [[Western Savanna Province]] of the [[Cundinamarca Department]]. It served 45,816,050 passengers in 2024 making it the busiest airport in [[Latin America]] in terms of passenger traffic, as well as being the 32nd busiest airport in the world in 2022. With 760,000 metric tons of cargo passing through the same year, it is also [[Ibero-America|Iberoamerica]]'s most important cargo hub.<ref>{{Cite web |title=About {{!}} Bogota - El Dorado International Airport {{!}} Routes |url=https://www.routesonline.com/airports/10273/bogota-el-dorado-international-airport/about/ |access-date=2023-11-29 |website=www.routesonline.com}}</ref> El Dorado is also by far the busiest and most important airport in Colombia, accounting for just under half (49%) of the country's air traffic.<ref name="Aerocivil Statistics 2013">{{cite web |title=EL TRANSPORTE AEREO EN EL 2011 |trans-title=AIR TRANSPORT IN 2011 |url=http://www.aerocivil.gov.co/AAeronautica/Estadisticas/TAereo/EOperacionales/Documents/TRANSPORTE%20A%C3%89REO%20-%20CIFRAS%20DE%202011.pdf |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20140801071744/http://www.aerocivil.gov.co/AAeronautica/Estadisticas/TAereo/EOperacionales/Documents/TRANSPORTE%20A%C3%89REO%20-%20CIFRAS%20DE%202011.pdf |archivedate=2014-08-01 |accessdate=2012-10-28 |website=www.aerocivil.gov.co |language=es}}</ref> The facility covers {{Convert|1700|acre|abbr=off}} and contains two {{Convert|3800|m||adj=on}} long runways.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.airport-technology.com/projects/el-dorado-international-airport-bogota|title=Facts and Figures about Bogota Airport|website=airport-technology.com|accessdate=20 October 2023|archive-date=23 March 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230323104508/https://www.airport-technology.com/projects/el-dorado-international-airport-bogota/|url-status=live}}</ref> El Dorado has non-stop international flights to [[North America]], [[South America]], [[Central America]], the [[Caribbean]], [[Europe]], and the [[Middle East]].

[[File:2018 Aeropuerto El Dorado de Bogotá - Vehículos en el muelle nacional.jpg|thumb|Vehicles on the apron]]
The airport was designed and built during the government of General [[Gustavo Rojas Pinilla]] as part of his campaign to modernize the country. Construction began in 1955 and entered in service by December 1959, replacing the aging [[Techo International Airport (Colombia)|Techo International Airport]], which had been the city's main airport since 1930.<ref name="auto1">{{Cite web |date=2020-03-19 |title=Eldorado, 50 años escribiendo historia en la aviación colombiana |url=https://www.elespectador.com/economia/eldorado-50-anos-escribiendo-historia-en-la-aviacion-colombiana-article-176731/ |access-date=2023-11-29 |website=EL ESPECTADOR|language=spanish}}</ref>

Before its inauguration, [[Soledad International Airport]] in Barranquilla was the nation's air hub. It was relegated to secondary importance in the country when El Dorado Airport opened.

The Sociedad de Mejoras y Ornato de Bogotá was in charge of the external decoration of the airport. On 29 September, after a meeting of the Board of Directors of project, the inauguration date was set for 10 December 1959.<ref name="auto1"/>

Before its completion on 28 October 1959, the airports's manager, René Van Meerbeke, recommended that the airport's name be placed in the central part of the building's façade; however, the name was the subject of much reflection: a short, easy-to-pronounce, terrigenous name was sought that would recall the aboriginal culture that occupied the Bogotá Savannah. Thus, El Dorado was chosen as the most appropriate name for the new terminal. After much discussion among academics led by Professor Luis López de Mesa, Father Félix Restrepo and Alberto Miramón, the name of the airport was determined by decree, written without spaces, forming a single word.<ref name="auto1"/>

On 10 December 1959, the Eldorado International Air was inaugurated with a spectacular aeronautical exhibition beginning on 6 December which included 16 airplanes, 12 jet-propelled and four additional [[Douglas A-26 Invader|B-26s]] that caused the greatest impression on the public.<ref name="auto1"/>

In the archives of the firm of architects and engineers Cuéllar, Serrano, Gómez y Cía., which participated in the construction of the airport, and of the Sociedad de Mejoras y Ornato, there is no record of the company that manufactured the Eldorado sign; neither is the weight of the eight letters known, since they did not need maintenance since they were installed.

The airport reached a milestone in 1973 with over three million passengers and nearly 5 million units of luggage processed. Plans began for a second runway at El Dorado with concerns that the explosive growth would lead to over congestion in the future.{{Citation needed|date=August 2023}}

In 1990, the [[Special Administrative Unit of Civil Aeronautics]] (Aerocivil) moved to the airport.{{Citation needed|date=August 2023}} <!-- During this same year, the Centro de Estudios Aeronáuticos and at the east part of the airport the building for the National Center for Aeronavigation were constructed. -->

In 1998, the airport's second runway was inaugurated, which has received much disagreement from the residents of the nearby area of Fontibón, due to the incessant air operations during the day and night.

In 2012, in accordance with Law 75 of 1989, which honors the memory of [[Luis Carlos Galán]], Law 1529 of 2012 made official the name change from "El Dorado International Airport" to "Luis Carlos Galán Sarmiento El Dorado International Airport", including the space between "El" and "Dorado", and the name of the politician from Bumán. This name change generated a strong controversy, especially because of the costs associated with it, and because of the non-existent relationship between Galán and the airport.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Semana |date=2010-06-05 |title=¿El Dorado o Galán? |url=https://www.semana.com/nacion/articulo/el-dorado-galan/117623-3/ |access-date=2023-11-29 |website=Semana.com Últimas Noticias de Colombia y el Mundo |language=spanish}}</ref>

At the end of 2017, all the works corresponding to El Dorado International Airport and the new Terminal 1 were fully handed over. The Terminal 1 grew from 173,000 to 235,000 m<sup>2</sup> (square meters), with the potential to serve up to 43 million people per year.<ref name="newterminal11">{{Cite web |date=2017-12-07 |title=Colombia opens latest phase of Bogotá airport expansion |url=https://www.bnamericas.com/en/news/colombia-opens-latest-phase-of-bogota-airport-expansion |access-date=2024-10-16}}</ref>

=== Avianca hub ===
Avianca officially opened a [[Airline hub|hub]] in Bogotá in December 1998. The carrier flies to 52 destinations from Bogota as of August 2023.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Meet our Hubs |url=https://www.avianca.com/us/en/descubre-y-compra/alianzas-beneficios/centros-conexiones/ |access-date=15 August 2023 |website=Avianca}}</ref>

It is now one of two hubs operated by the carrier, the other being [[Avianca El Salvador]]'s hub at [[El Salvador International Airport]].

=== Puente Aéreo ===
{{unreferenced section|date=March 2023}}

In 1981, Avianca undertook the construction of the Puente Aéreo Terminal inaugurated by President [[Julio César Turbay Ayala]].

The name Puente Aéreo means Air Bridge in English. Avianca's original purpose for the terminal was for flights serving Cali, Medellín, Miami and New York. During the first years of operation and until 2005 Avianca gradually moved all of its domestic operations to the Puente Aéreo and moved the Miami and New York operations to the main terminal.

This allowed them to streamline their operations by using space previously assigned to customs and immigration for passenger gates and lounges. The culmination of this process came in 2006 when the airline undertook extensive renovations on the building. However, the airline was mindful of the impending and current renovations of El Dorado. One possible plan will be demolishing the Puente Aéreo Terminal, Main terminal and old cargo buildings which will be replaced with a new mega terminal. Many of the renovations made to the terminal in 2006 were obviously temporary and designed to be cheap but effective. For example, the walkways for the new gates are simply floor tiles placed over the old tarmac and the structure is made of aluminum with plastic sheets instead of glass windows. Passengers must cross the lanes used by buses, baggage carts and other vehicles in order to reach the aircraft. Once at the gate travellers must climb stairs to access the plane, the norm in the 1950s and 1960s but has for many years been surpassed by jetways.

In February 2008, Avianca opened a pioneer store called Avianca store which sells different products including: toy airplanes, hats, umbrellas, clothing, stuffed toys, pens, mugs and other such products, all embossed with the company logo. The store was an instant success and the airline expanded the concept to various other cities in Colombia.

On 28 April 2018, Avianca moved its entire domestic operation to Terminal 1 and local carriers Satena and EasyFly started operating from Puente Aéreo or Terminal 2

=== CATAM military airport ===
On 3 September 1932 it was launched the first Military Transport Service in Colombia, when a Junkers F-13 carried Colonel Luis Acevedo and his party to Leticia. Colonel Acevedo also served as Colombia's General Director of aviation. Although the military air transport infrastructure was not formed yet, that mission was accomplished during the conflict with Peru in a rudimentary but effective way, with aircraft like the Junkers W 34, Ju 52 and BT-32 Condor.

In 1954 he created a "''Liaison Squadron''" operating under direct orders of the President of the Republic, at the time, Gen. [[Gustavo Rojas Pinilla]]. The Squadron was located in the Airport of Techo, the first airport of Bogotá. Its success led to the creation of a Military Airlift Group, which reached the category of Transportation Base in 1959. By then El Dorado International Airport was finished, so the [[Colombian Air Force]] ordered the transfer of the Unit to an area adjacent to the new Airport of El Dorado, using the civil airport facilities, while finishing the construction of a new base. The base was baptized as Comando Aéreo de Transporte Militar (Military Transportation Air Command) or CATAM. The base was inaugurated on 28 May 1963.

The base acquired the status of Operations and Logistics Support Center by FAC Directive No. 4429 of 8 July 1963, starting operations on 25 October. In 1968 the first two Hercules C-130B, with Colombian airplane military numbers FAC-1001 and FAC-1002, were delivered to this base. These aircraft, clearly designed for war missions and troop and materials transport, were able to use short and unpaved runways used in military operations through the country, fulfilling the needs of Colombian Air Force.

In 1977, the Military Transport Aviation Command was named after the Colombian aviation pioneer, Honorary Brigadier General Camilo Daza Alvarez. In order to expand its capacity for troop and cargo transportation in support of surface forces, in their fight against subversion and drug trafficking, the Air Force acquired new [[C-130 Hercules]] aircraft that been used for security purposes but also for humanitarian assistance. Between 1990 and 1991 the base received from the U.S. government six C-130B aircraft to support operations to combat drug trafficking and guerrillas.

In 1996 the base opened new ground accesses through an area devoted to the Military Transport Aviation Command. The narrow street that impeded the entrance and exit of vehicles was replaced by a dual carriageway and a tunnel that allows access to vehicular traffic passing below the airplane access ramp to runway number 2 of El Dorado International Airport. The parking lot was also enlarged to serve up to 260 vehicles. The base hosts the Colombian Air Force Museum, which has planes in display that represent the various types used in service during the 85 years history of the force.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.fac.mil.co/index.php?idcategoria=130&pag=3|title=Fuerza Aérea Colombiana &#124;|website=www.fac.mil.co|access-date=6 May 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160106165429/https://www.fac.mil.co/index.php?idcategoria=130&pag=3|archive-date=6 January 2016|url-status=live}}</ref>

In 2003 NVG equipment for night vision air operations was installed in Hercules C-130 and CN-235 Nurtanio airplanes. This increased the operational and support capacity of the base given to ground Army force, by allowing transportation, parachuting and aeromedical evacuation on combat runways lacking illumination. In this way Colombian Air Force almost doubled its operating capacity at this base, since it works 24 hours a day.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.fac.mil.co/index.php?idcategoria=115|title=Fuerza Aérea Colombiana &#124;|website=www.fac.mil.co|access-date=6 May 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170205103659/http://www.fac.mil.co/index.php?idcategoria=115|archive-date=5 February 2017|url-status=live}}</ref>

== Terminals and facilities==
The main passenger terminal is known as Terminal 1 (T1). The T1 building is shaped like a lowercase "h" and is divided into two piers or concourses: the international one to the north side and the domestic pier/concourse on the south side. Terminal 1 has four airline lounges (operated by LATAM, Avianca, and Copa), in addition to the El Dorado Lounge by [[Mastercard]] in the international concourse and one airline lounge (operated by Avianca) in the domestic concourse. It also offers a variety of food options, both on the air and land side, and several retail stores and cafés in the duty-free area. There are also car rental facilities, ticket counters, [[Automated teller machine|ATMs]], telephones, restrooms, luggage storage space and even a small [[casino]]. The terminal has complimentary Wi-Fi service.

T1 has several check-in counter areas, check-in kiosks and expanded immigration lanes compared to the previous terminal. "Express lanes" were added for holders of biometric passports and Global Entry Membership. The new terminal has moving walkways, escalators and elevators to guarantee universal access and faster connections. The new terminal contains 32 gates: 10 for international flights and 22 for domestic flights, five of which are remote stands.

The "Puente Aéreo" is currently Terminal 2 (T2). It had previously been Avianca's exclusive terminal for domestic flights. On 29 April 2018, the airline moved the remainder of its domestic operation from T2 to T1, which in turn meant the switch from T1 to T2 of EasyFly and Satena, who are currently the sole operators at the terminal. Terminal 2 contains a revamped food plaza, some retail stores, and ATMs.

The [[Special Administrative Unit of Civil Aeronautics]] (Aerocivil) is located in the new ''Aerocivil'' Building, located on the airport property.<ref>"[http://portal.aerocivil.gov.co/portal/page/portal/Aerocivil_Portal_Internet/Inicio Inicio] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110415013417/http://portal.aerocivil.gov.co/portal/page/portal/Aerocivil_Portal_Internet/Inicio |date=15 April 2011 }}."

Due to the high demand for passengers, the need has become apparent to build a new, more modern airport with a larger capacity for both commercial and cargo flights. The process began with the creation of the new terminal. On 7 February 2007, the airport gave a concession to the consortium Opain. The national government accepted the proposal with Opain (airport operating company), to demolish the airport on 14 March 2008, after having given its concession. Initially the grant provided for the modernization of existing buildings and the construction of some additional buildings connected to the main terminal, but during the upgrading works (see below, Milestone 1), structural defects were discovered, which do not compromise the integrity of the building today. Opain from the beginning had proposed to demolish the aging terminal and had even submitted a new design to replace it, but the government had strongly opposed it due to pressing budget and legal issues (because it would be a big change to the terms of the concession, which could make Opain as well as other competitors who participated in the tender submitted claims), although many sectors of public opinion agreed with Opain. After the structural problems were discovered, the government agreed to the demolition of the airport and compensation for the renovations that Opain had already been hired to perform (Milestone 1). For the airport to handle 16 million passengers annually and 1.5 million tons of cargo, Opain plans to move the cargo terminal to allow the expansion of the passenger terminal and ensure access for at least an additional avenue to 26th Street.{{citation needed|date=November 2024}}

On 19 September 2007, the implementation of Milestone 1 of the plan for modernization and expansion of the airport began. This consists of expanding the current Central Arrivals Hall of the terminal and installation of the CUTE system at the terminal. This was completed in March 2008. Additionally, the construction of the new cargo terminal, a new building for the office of civil aviation, a new fire station, an administrative center and quarantine were completed in September 2009.{{citation needed|date=November 2024}}

The third milestone of the project began in late November 2009. Terminal 2 (Today's T1), located on the north side of the old terminal, will handle all international passengers and its construction was set for 2012. The old building of Terminal 1 will handle only national passengers, except for Avianca's which will continue being served on Terminal Puente Aereo. Soon after Terminal 2 began its operation, the old Terminal 1 building was to be demolished in order to build a new terminal for domestic passengers. 
On 17 October, the new Terminal 2 was inaugurated and on the 19th, every international operation was moved from Terminal 1 to Terminal 2. 
The new El Dorado International Airport, designed by Zyscovich Architects, was the largest infrastructure project in the city, when it was completed in July 2014.<ref name="urlEldorado estará listo en 2014 por nuevo retraso | ELESPECTADOR.COM">{{cite web |title=Eldorado estará listo en 2014 por nuevo retraso &#124; ELESPECTADOR.COM |url=http://www.elespectador.com/impreso/articuloimpreso185963-eldorado-estara-listo-2014-nuevo-retraso |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101106172632/http://elespectador.com/impreso/articuloimpreso185963-eldorado-estara-listo-2014-nuevo-retraso |archive-date=6 November 2010 |access-date=4 March 2010 |language=es}}</ref> The new Terminal 2 was renamed to Terminal 1.

== Future development proposals ==
{{more citations needed section|date=March 2020}}
In January 2015, a two-stage plan was proposed to improve Bogota's aerial access, as part of a greater endeavor to modernize Colombia's airports. The plan included a major expansion to the current main terminal with the effect of increasing the number of gates from 37 to 56 and thus raising the capacity of the airport from 27 million passengers to 40 million. Phase 1 also includes improvements to the runway to increase efficiency. The time scale for phase one was announced as approximately 24 months. Phase 2 involves the construction of a brand new secondary airport, currently called El Dorado II, in the suburb of [[Facatativá]] west of Bogota. The new airport was due to open in 2023.<ref>{{Cite web|title=New Bogota (El Dorado II) Airport New Airport Profile {{!}} CAPA|url=https://centreforaviation.com/data/profiles/newairports/new-bogota-el-dorado-ii-airport|access-date=2021-02-23|website=centreforaviation.com|archive-date=30 July 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210730221917/https://centreforaviation.com/data/profiles/newairports/new-bogota-el-dorado-ii-airport|url-status=live}}</ref> It was expected that El Dorado and El Dorado II will be connected via a commuter/light rail project.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Tiempo |first1=Casa Editorial El |title=Lo que viene con creación de El Dorado II, nuevo aeropuerto de Bogotá |url=https://m.eltiempo.com/archivo/documento/CMS-15127276 |website=El Tiempo |date=21 January 2015 |language=es-CO |access-date=20 August 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180820105610/https://m.eltiempo.com/archivo/documento/CMS-15127276 |archive-date=20 August 2018 |url-status=live }}</ref>

In 2023, plans were announced to double the capacity of El Dorado Airport with capacity to reach 60 million passengers with a contract awarded by 2025.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Colombia Plans to Invest $2.7B in Five Airports {{!}} Engineering News-Record |url=https://www.enr.com/articles/56565-colombia-plans-to-invest-27b-in-five-airports |access-date=2023-08-15 |website=www.enr.com |language=en |archive-date=15 August 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230815120007/https://www.enr.com/articles/56565-colombia-plans-to-invest-27b-in-five-airports |url-status=live }}</ref>

As April 2025, the Government had released a new 3D proposal for the upcoming project El Dorado Máximo Desarrollo aka EDMAX or El Dorado Max. [https://www.nlarenas.com/2025/04/aeropuerto-el-dorado-max-bogota/ El Dorado MAX]
