At the Panama Airport, Copa Airlines has created a flight connection center between all of the Americas and Brazil. The “Hub of the Americas” offers a range of advantages for passengers seeking convenience and quality.
The main advantage for those flying with Copa Airlines connecting in Panama is the exemption from immigration and customs in Panama. Luggage is checked directly to the passenger’s final destination, and flights are scheduled at convenient times to provide quick connections. Today, Copa Airlines flies to the following Brazilian cities: Belo Horizonte, Brasilia, Fortaleza, Manaus, Porto Alegre, Salvador, São Paulo, Recife, and Rio de Janeiro. Passengers connecting in Panama will only go through customs and immigration in these cities, meaning at their final destination.
Additionally, the Hub of the Americas offers the most direct connection between the Americas due to Panama’s geographical location and favorable climate, allowing the airport to operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. There are also two runways to ensure smooth air traffic during landings and takeoffs, and operations at sea level, which allows aircraft to extend their range.
