For Bogotá (BOG) to Albuquerque International Sunport (ABQ), plan on at least one connection; the exact routing and total travel time depend on the flights available when you book. Allow roughly 11–16 hours door to door as a planning estimate, plus extra slack for New Year’s Eve travel. You’ll generally complete U.S. immigration and customs at your first U.S. airport, not in Albuquerque, so leave a generous connection and check that your travel documents cover your transit route. After landing at Albuquerque International Sunport, budget about 1–2 hours for arrival formalities and bags, then around 15–25 minutes by taxi or rideshare to Old Town; fares vary, so check the app or airport taxi stand.
If your arrival time and energy allow, take a gentle 45–60-minute orientation stroll around Old Town Albuquerque. The compact plaza is an easy place to get your bearings; from there, admire San Felipe de Neri Church on Old Town Plaza for about 20–30 minutes. Treat this as an exterior visit unless you’ve confirmed holiday access—New Year’s Eve hours or services may affect entry.
For dinner, continue to Sawmill Market, near Old Town, and choose among its food vendors; expect roughly $15–30 per person before drinks. New Year’s Eve hours can differ from normal schedules, and some vendors may close early, so check directly before setting out. If it’s closed by the time you arrive, keep the evening flexible rather than counting on a specific backup without checking its holiday hours.
