I noticed that too a few years back - Colombia?  Well then I started to return with trip photos so they all understood - now they're envious.  The best thing to do IMHO is to spread the word.  My guess is that if Avianca bumps your flight they'll place you on the next one available, regardless which airline (hell they did that to me 6 years ago).

Actually, I have brought back photos. It has made many people envious, but they still think it is dangerous and not worth it, especially considering the Iraq issue,  while others think I'm desperate and cannot find an American woman. But some chear me on.

These attitudes are obviously nonsense and are a result of ignorance, but I'm tired of dealing with these people. I just tell them I'm going to Miami which is true. They just don't know I'm changing planes there and heading for Colombia. Whatever it takes to shut these people up.

Aces is the best Colombian airline.First class service in coach.Makes American Airlines look like a city bus.But I do fly American because they can get me San Francisco to Cali in one day.
