With the reopening of the borders in Panama, Copa Airlines added frequencies and destinations to its schedule according to the existing demand and the restrictions of each country in the region.
As reported by the airline, tickets can be purchased by entering the airline’s website or through travel agencies. In addition, passengers who have valid tickets will be able to manage their respective changes without penalty.
«We are committed to the economic and tourist development of the countries we serve and we will continue to focus on progressively reestablishing the important connectivity that we offered before the start of this pandemic,» said Copa Airlines CEO Pedro Heilbron.
Copa Airlines requires a PCR test with a negative result for COVID-19 with a maximum of 96 hours prior to the flight, health and travel insurance, health affidavit, and others. For more information click here.
