We invite you to discover the opportunities that Colombia presents in the aeronautics sector, characterized by significant players in aerospace components with AS9100 certification, regional clusters, MRO operations, repair workshops, training programs, skilled and cost-effective labor compared to other countries in the region. Colombia offers a package of incentives at both national and departmental levels that are appealing to investors in the sector. Furthermore, the country enjoys air connectivity with over 40 international cities through more than a thousand international flights per week and 30 airlines serving 17 international airports.
