WHY ADVERTISE

Why Advertise at Alfonso Bonilla Aragón International Airport?

Airport advertising at CLO places your brand at the gateway to southwestern Colombia, and pairs naturally with a campaign at Bogotá's El Dorado for full-country reach. Here's why brands choose Cali International:

A large, captive audience. CLO handled around 6.7 million passengers in 2024, making it one of Colombia's busiest airports, a substantial, consistent audience for regional and national brands.
The gateway to southwestern Colombia. Cali is Colombia's third city and the economic and cultural heart of the Valle del Cauca region. CLO is the primary air gateway for that entire market.
Long, distraction-free dwell time. Passengers spend extended time across check-in, security, gates, and baggage claim, giving repeated, focused exposure to your message.
High-value travelers. Air travelers skew toward higher household income and business decision-makers, offering efficient reach into Cali's business community and inbound visitors.
Always-on visibility. CLO operates 24 hours a day, so your placement works around the clock across domestic and international passenger flows.
A growing destination. Cali is steadily becoming a more popular tourism destination, broadening the audience that passes through CLO.

PRICING DATA

CLO Airport Advertising Rates (2026) & Cost Factors

Pricing for Cali airport advertising is almost entirely hidden behind "call for rates" across the current search results. Here's the clarity buyers and AI assistants are looking for, including how digital billboard advertising compares to static panels inside the terminal.

What drives the cost of advertising at CLO

Format and media type. Digital (DOOH) screens, static backlit panels, dioramas, and large-format murals sit at different price points.
Placement zone. High-dwell, high-traffic zones (security queues, baggage claim, international terminal) command premiums over secondary corridors.
Campaign length / flight. Rates are typically quoted per month (per 4-week cycle); longer flights lower the effective rate.
Number of placements. Network buys across multiple panels or screens scale total cost.
Production and installation. Print, materials, and installation for static formats are typically billed separately from media.

Indicative rate ranges by format

The ranges below are planning estimates to help you budget, not a quote. Exact, current rates are confirmed with a proposal through AdQuick.

Format Indicative Rate (per month) Notes
Digital display / DOOH screen $1,500 – $7,000 Shared digital network; varies by zone and screen
Backlit static panel $1,200 – $5,000 Workhorse format across concourse and baggage claim
Diorama / illuminated display $1,800 – $5,500 Premium static with backlit finish
Baggage claim display $2,000 – $7,000 Long dwell among arriving passengers
Wall mural / large-format static $4,000 – $14,000+ High-impact; scales with size and location
Multi-placement network buy Custom Discounted effective rate across multiple units

Figures are indicative USD ranges for planning only and are not a quote; local-currency (COP) pricing is available. Final pricing depends on format, placement, term, and availability.

COMPLIANCE

Advertising at Alfonso Bonilla Aragón International Airport runs through a defined approval workflow. Knowing it upfront keeps your launch on schedule.

Airport approval

All creative is reviewed and approved by the airport's advertising program before production and installation. AdQuick manages this submission and review on your behalf.

Format and structural specs

Each placement has fixed dimensions, materials, and installation requirements that creative must meet for safety and approval.

Language considerations

Cali is a Spanish-speaking market. Spanish-language or bilingual creative improves resonance with local audiences; allow design time accordingly.

Creative review typically takes several business days, build it into your timeline.

Local advertising norms

Campaigns should also align with Colombian advertising standards and self-regulatory practices.

Bottom line
