Dining

The terminal offers very limited food and beverage options, typically a small snack kiosk. Ocaña's city centre, roughly 4–6 kilometres away, has a wider variety of local Colombian eateries and traditional restaurants serving regional cuisine. Travellers are advised to eat before arriving at the airport for longer waits.

Traveller Tips

Confirm your flight the day before, as regional Colombian routes are subject to schedule changes or cancellations.
Arrive at least 60–90 minutes early, as the small terminal can become congested during peak departures.
Carry Colombian pesos in cash, as card payment infrastructure at the airport is limited.
Arrange your taxi or transfer in advance, as transport options immediately outside the terminal can be scarce.
