AD PLACEMENT — CONTEXTUAL
Avianca's domestic network at CLO connects mainly through a short walk, but always check your gate on arrival since assignments can change quickly.
If arriving internationally, budget extra time for the immigration line, which can back up during simultaneous Miami and Panama arrivals.
There's no dedicated fast-track lane for connecting passengers, so build in buffer during the 6-9am and 6-9pm banks.
Baggage claim and customs are combined for international arrivals, so connecting bags are not automatically transferred airside — confirm with your airline whether you need to recheck.
Food and lounge options are limited, so don't count on a long layover being comfortable — grab food before security if you have downtime.

Low risk
Moderate
High risk
Tight connections are safer outside peak hours. Morning rush (6–9a), midday (11a–2p), and evening (4–8p) are highest risk.
CLO has one terminal building with domestic and international sections connected by a single corridor, so all transfers are on foot with no trains or shuttles required. International arrivals must clear immigration and customs before reaching the domestic side, which is the only real choke point in an otherwise short walk.
