When a shipment to or from Colombia is time-critical, oversized or needs special handling, we arrange a cargo aircraft for that load alone.
The ATR 72F entered service in 2020. It has a published range of 900 nautical miles and a cruise speed of 275 knots. The aircraft has a service ceiling of 25,000 feet and 2,648 cubic feet of cargo volume.

Why the ATR 72F Fits Colombia
With 900 nautical miles of published range, it can fly between Bogota and destinations such as Quito, Aruba and Curacao, allowing for reserves and routing. On the Caribbean coast the dry season runs from December to April, which is also when Cartagena is busiest, so plan coastal trips in those months well ahead.
Cargo flights to and from Colombia use the main international airports, and the operator sorts out the load plan, the documents and the routing before the booking is confirmed. Runway needs are calculated by the operator for that day’s conditions, and we confirm them with the operator before the trip is booked.
How Colombia Clients Use the ATR 72F
Every freighter quote begins with the cargo, its size, its weight and the way it loads, after which the operator chooses the airports and works out the route.
Let us have the total weight, the dimensions, the heaviest item and the two airports, and we will tell you whether this freighter fits or which one does.
Vetting Behind Every Trip
Every operator, aircraft, and crew goes through our internal due diligence before we present any options. Our internal standards meet or exceed what the FAA requires:
- FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
- Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates.
- Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
- Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
