Medellin Consolidates as a Key Hub for Wingo
The capital of Antioquia continues to gain traction within the airline’s network strategy. With this new connection, Wingo reaches a total of 10 international destinations operated from Medellin, complemented by five domestic routes.
Jorge Jimenez, Vice President of Commercial and Planning at Wingo, highlighted that the inauguration represents a firm step in its commitment to strengthening the region’s low-cost international connectivity. The dynamism of the Antioquian market is backed by company figures: so far in 2026, the airline has already carried 690,000 passengers on its routes to and from Medellin.
The launch of non-stop operations between Medellin and Montego Bay not only diversifies low-cost travel options for Colombian passengers but also decentralizes the country’s air connectivity, eliminating the need for mandatory layovers.
