Can I make a 40 minutes connection at BOG on an international flight?
40 minutes is below the 90-minute international MCT at Eldorado International. You may need to rush and could miss your connection. El Dorado operates as one main terminal with domestic and international piers connected by a long airside walking corridor; there is no train or shuttle required. International arrivals must pass through immigration and customs before reaching the domestic side, which functions as a full re-entry into the country rather than a simple walk-through, and there is no sterile international-to-international transit corridor for most passengers.
