The U.S. Embassy has announced that Spirit Airlines will operate two humanitarian flights on April 6, 2020.

This message has been reprinted in its entirety as issued by the US Embassy in Bogotá.

One flight will depart from El Dorado International Airport (BOG) in Bogota. A second flight will depart from Jose Maria Cordova International Airport (MDE) in Medellin, and then board additional passengers in Cartagena’s Rafael Nunez International Airport (CTG). Both flights will arrive at Fort Lauderdale – Hollywood International Airport (FLL) in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

These flights have been made available to allow U.S. citizens and Legal Permanent Residents to return to the United States. Please contact Spirit Airlines directly for seat availability, reservations, and pricing information.

If you are interested in returning to the United States, we encourage you to take advantage of these flights. The U.S. government cannot guarantee the ability to arrange flights indefinitely. U.S. citizens should return immediately to the United States, unless you are prepared to remain abroad for an indefinite period.

If you purchase a ticket on this flight, and encounter difficulties traveling to the airport from your location, please contact us at [email protected] or (57) 1 275-2000. We have received reports that taxis and bus companies continue to operate, albeit at reduced and limited schedules. If you believe you will have difficulty reaching the airport due to travel restrictions, please provide us with your travel information (name, date of birth, passport number, and contact details).
