If Cartagena, Colombia, has been on your radar, now’s the time to lock in a trip.

This colorful Caribbean city is one of Colombia’s most charming and popular destinations, known for its cobblestone streets, pastel colonial buildings, and easy access to beaches and island day trips. And right now, you can get there for as low as 7,500 points.

We’re seeing excellent award availability between Miami (MIA) and Cartagena (CTG) at ultra-low rates, making this a standout redemption for anyone looking to squeeze serious value from their points.

Even if you’re not based in Miami, this award alert is still incredibly useful. With such low pricing to Colombia, it can make sense to book a separate positioning flight to Miami and still come out ahead, rather than booking a single award from your home airport using another program.

To quickly find dates, tools like Seats.aero can help surface availability across a calendar view, making it easier to zero in on the best options.

At these rates, you’re essentially getting an international flight to a top South American destination for the cost of a short domestic hop. If Cartagena’s historic old town, beach clubs, and vibrant food scene are calling your name, this is one of the cheapest ways to get there.

Best Ways To Book

Redeeming Alaska Atmos Rewards points is the best way to book this deal. However, earning Alaska points can be difficult.

The fastest way to earn Alaska points is by using an Alaska Airlines credit card, but you can also earn points by shopping through the Atmos Rewards Shopping portal, dining at restaurants that participate in Atmos Rewards Dining, or flying with Alaska’s Oneworld partners. You can also transfer points from Bilt Rewards and Marriott Bonvoy.

Yes, you could book these awards through American Airlines AAdvantage, but you’ll pay more. AA typically charges 12,000 miles in economy and 25,000 miles each way in business class for the same route.

Final Thoughts

Award flights to Colombia pop up now and then, but there’s usually not this much availability. And finding award flights to Cartagena at just 7,500 points is about as cheap as it gets. When other programs charge more (sometimes double) for the same seat, this is easily one of the lowest-cost ways to reach Cartagena using points.
