Wingo launched its new nonstop route between José María Córdova International Airport —which serves Medellin—and Guatemala City on Thursday. With this operational milestone, the carrier consolidates its position as the only airline in the market offering direct, nonstop flights between the Antioquian capital and the Central American nation, significantly expanding direct travel alternatives.
The new connection will operate three weekly frequencies, scheduled for Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Aiming to maintain competitiveness in the ultra-low-cost carrier (ULCC) market, introductory fares are available starting at $119 USD per leg, a price that includes all mandatory fees and taxes.
Wingo Strengthens Its Foothold in the Antioquia Market
The launch of this service represents a strategic step for Wingo’s route network in Antioquia, considered one of the airline’s most vital hubs. Throughout 2026, the carrier has already transported more than 630,000 passengers to and from Medellin, reflecting the dynamism and high demand of the regional aviation market.

Jorge Jiménez, Wingo’s Commercial and Planning Vice President, celebrated the connection of two regions renowned for their tourism and business appeal, culturally linking Medellin and Guatemala under their traditional nicknames as lands of “eternal spring”.
