Appreciate if anyone can give me suggestions on what they would do? I am planning on just packing it, and carrying it as a free carry on.
It's not a rigid pack, right? If you could squish it into the sizer, you're good.

And, of course, they might not bother you (mixed reports -- on my 2 flights in August, nothing was measured).

Also, for a longer flight, you might want to ponder your hydration. Beverages are "expensive" on Spirit. I just bring an empty water bottle and fill it up after security (might not work in Bogota). You could also buy a beverage at the airport if you prefer.
