Same problem I have Same problem but I believe your time frame will result in the highest price tickets all year! Don't believe there are cheap tickets during this period.

Where are you flying from? I know Continental Airlines just started flying to Cali from Houston direct - it gets in around 9pm Cali time.

You'll have to hunt! You'll be hard-pressed to find cheap tickets. Two years ago at Christmas (2003) my wife and I paid about $700, if I'm remembering correctly. Given that gas prices have gone up considerably since then, unfortunately, it'll be closer to $1000. My wife's family is coming to stay with us during the Christmas season and they are paying about $1000 each. Sorry I couldn't give you better news. If you want to wait and wing it, you can try looking for flight about a month out or so --- sometimes deals pop up for the holiday, but usually you have to act quickly because the window of oppportunity is so short. Good luck to ya'!

Good Luck Where are you flying from? What city?

My ticket from LAX (California) was 970.00. Although it was bussiness class. The ticket was for December 23 and I went into Bogota. I used my Frequent Miles from American to fly with Mexicana. May I suggest you ask around if anyone wants to sell there frequent flyer miles and have them buy you a ticket. The cost is around 40,000 miles on American. That is really cheap, as far as miles. This may work out for you and the seller. If you plan to do this, you must start now and get the ticket, because these tickets (Frequent Flyer seats) get booked really fast, especially during December.

I am going to Medellin in Sept. and it looks it looks like less then 600 from LAX.

RUV,
