Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from Jose Maria Cordova Intl. Airport (MDE) to Cartagena Airport last minute?
Being the spontaneous type is an awesome way to travel, but it isn't necessarily the smartest way to get your hands on a bargain fare. It's better to book your Medellin Airport to Cartagena Airport trip in advance instead of leaving it until the last minute. Based on flight pricing and demand studies in 2022, we have found that the best time to book domestic flights is between 28 – 35 days ahead of the departure date, and international flights three to four months in advance. We recommend saving that spontaneity for when you get to your destination!

Flight delays can be an excuse to linger longer at the airport bar. However, they can also make you miss your connection that upends your entire trip. You can keep updated about delays by looking up your flight status through the Expedia App long before you get to the airport. If you're already there and the delay will significantly impact your plans, visit the customer service desk to figure out your next move.
