Aerocivil began operating the Instrument Landing System (ILS) Category III at El Dorado International Airport in late November.

El Dorado International Airport in Bogotá will have no commercial flights from 10:00 am to 12:30 pm on July 20.

"Inaction is not an option," said John Kelly, head of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, in a warning to international airports.

The winter route will fly weekly from Toronto to Cartagena between December 18 and April 9.

The violation, if confirmed through a full investigation, would impost a fine of more than $11,000 USD on Viva Colombia.

Bogotá-based airline Avianca completed the first flight on its new daily route between the Colombian capital and Montevideo today.

Airline improvement in recent years means more Colombians "now consider air travel their first choice when traveling," said Wingo CEO Catalina Bretón.

Aerocivil says it received an average of 18 complaints per day during the Semana Santa period, less than half of the 45-per-day average in 2016.

The new flight will depart Bogotá's El Dorado International Airport at 4:29 am every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday.

The flight will depart José María Córdova each day at 12:18 pm and arrive in Montería at 1:18 pm. The return leg will leave Los Garzones Airport at 2:00 pm and land at 3:00 pm.
