Continental Weekend Special $359 Houston to Bogota Rountrip.

I just got the Continental specials email for the week. They have the IAH-BOG direct flight for $359. You have to travel Saturday March 7 and return Monday or Tuesday.

My dad just bought tickets from IAH to BOG for $520 for spring break. There are certainly some good deals to be had these days. It's about time. Continental usually has outrageous prices for their routes from Houston to Colombia.

holy heck...is that including tax????

i agree CG- Continental's prices to COP have been outrageous for a while...

heck the other day- i was in AZ and had booked my flight back to H-town on Monday like in early January...I was set to leave for BAQ from houston the following day for Carnaval...

my BAQ trip was postponed before i bought tix...

i wake up Sunday morning expect to fly back to Houston from AZ (had to goto work on Monday) and since I had forgot my return flight to Houston was on Monday I had to change my ticket to leave that day.

tuscon to Houston same day ticket was like $1500....on Continental...

wound up driving to PHX and flew to IAH for an extra $400...

outrageous

Gdog, The $520 price is with taxes included. I couldn't believe it, but he got the last two tickets at that price for the days he and my mom are traveling.

Continental has really brought their fares to Colombia down a lot lately. I also have the Continental debit card from Chase so I avoid charges for my first bag.
