What's the deal with Spirit Air and their alleged $88 flights???

I found their $88 flight deals to Cartagena, as some of you did. Then someone even posted about it. Has anyone booked an actual ticket with them for $88? Those flights seem to not exist now.

Off to Barranquilla briefly, then to the ultimate paradise......Santa Marta. This was by far better than other places I visited by far. I've got a thousand stories from this tri ...

Cheapest way to call Colombia anyone???

I have friends in Cali, Medellin and other parts of Colombia. I've used calling cards purchased off the web and have been burnt by lies. Lately I've been buying $5 orbitel cards at the local bodega, but there's got to be a better way............ ...
