Moderators Moderator_02 Posted May 14, 2017 Author Moderators Share Posted May 14, 2017 Quote New Direct to Denver Flights from Copa – 13th US City to Get Direct Copa Flights Panama’s major international airport Tocumen is undergoing a huge expansion and the direct flights keep coming. Denver is the 13th US city to receive direct flights to Panama City, Panama from Copa and the seventh addition since 2012. In addition, Panama is even providing financial incentives to European airlines now to bring flights in. Think Lufthansa. Tip: If you are under the Pensionado retirement visa program (with an E-cedula identification card), check with a local Copa office or travel agent for 25% discounts on International and Domestic flights (those flights operated solely by Copa). It is a benefit of the retiree program for expats and Panamanians alike. United actually used to serve the Panama City – Denver route, but they discontinued that service. Expect Copa to be successful. In addition to Denver, Copa now flys direct to: Boston Chicago Fort Lauderdale Las Vegas Los Angeles Miami New Orleans New York City Orlando San Francisco Tampa Washington, DC Canada: Montreal and Toronto Many destinations throughout Central & South America.

Jim and Judi Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 I hope they can keep this route going. United only lasted about a year before they discontinued it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
