By gate T1 departures, this is the quick grab spot
Newsstand Kiosko sits in Terminal T1 near the main departures area, after security, so you can duck in just before boarding. It runs through most flight banks, typically opening early morning around the first departures and staying open into the evening. Think last‑minute basics, not a full supermarket. Shelves usually carry bottled water, soft drinks, chips, cookies, a few candy brands, and some local snacks at airport-level prices.
You’ll also find newspapers, Spanish-language magazines, and a rotating rack of paperbacks, useful if your flight from SMR runs 1–2 hours and you forgot a book. Expect single bottles of water and soda in the standard 500 ml range and snack bags in the 40–60 g range, with prices a notch above street kiosks in Santa Marta. It’s a functional stop to top up your carry-on before heading to the T1 gates.
Stock is limited, so don’t count on special items like travel chargers, headphones, or fresh food beyond packaged pastries. Payment usually accepts local cards and cash pesos; smaller notes speed things up when there’s a line stacked from one or two simultaneous departures. Quick move: grab drinks and snacks here in T1, then head straight to your gate so you’re not stuck with whatever’s left on the cart onboard.
