The busiest airport in all of Latin America is worth visiting, firstly, because of the landing surrounded by mountain peaks, and secondly, because of the interesting and intense air traffic. Avianca dominates, of course, but many other airlines from North, Central and South America and even Europe fly to Bogota. Several local carriers (SATENA, Click, Wingo, JetSmart Colombia) are also interesting. The terminal 1 has great large windows from which you can see all the traffic on northern the runway, both landside and airside. There are also several spotting points around the airport perimeter, but spotting from there is not easy.
