There’s no overnight required in Bogota but there may be some long layovers.

New York JFK – Bogota and Bogota – Buenos Aires are similar distance flights. The first segment will have an angled but near-flat business seat. The 787 segment between Bogota and Buenos Aires will be fully flat.

The total travel distance is 5376 miles each way. While United will only credit 100% of miles flown, Turkish and Aegean will credit 150% (and Ethiopian 200%).
