Roughly 2,230 miles separate Houston's George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) and Bogota's El Dorado International Airport (BOG), so a nonstop spends about 5 hours in the air, a little more or less depending on winds and direction. Nonstop award space in the data comes from a single airline: United Airlines. The Boeing 737-8 shows up on those nonstop award segments. Only about 4% of the award options in the data are nonstop, so most results connect.
Houston–Bogota rewards discipline: redeem only when points beat what the ticket costs in cash. The cheapest economy seat is a partner award on a United Airlines nonstop, so the lowest price is also the quickest trip. Expect about $44 in taxes and fees on top, in line with the route's typical economy taxes. Run the miles-or-cash math each time: a cheap fare usually beats spending points. The exception is business class: at about 2.1 times economy, it's the cabin where an award is most worth checking against the cash fare.
Virgin Australia Velocity takes economy at 19,000 points on a United Airlines nonstop. Air Canada Aeroplan is cheapest in business class at 40,000 points. First class starts at 140,000 points through United MileagePlus on a connecting itinerary, often first on one leg only, so confirm the cabin on each flight. Business class also prices as a partner award, with one airline's miles buying another airline's seat.
In the current award data, only United Airlines shows nonstop space on Houston–Bogota, but as a Star Alliance member its seats also price through alliance partners, not just United MileagePlus. Connecting awards near the price floor run through Miami; they're the fallback when the nonstop is full. The economy floor is a partner award: Virgin Australia Velocity sells the United Airlines nonstop. Only six airlines show award inventory on the route, so a route alert is the surest way to catch new saver space.
Neither Houston nor Bogota shows a same-metro alternate airport in the data, so the live price table above is the one to watch. Also tracked into Bogota: Miami to Bogota, from 9,870 points at last check. For a longer redemption from Houston, Cabo San Lucas and Amsterdam are tracked too.
