I just found some relatively cheap flights to CR at the times I want on Copa. I know I'll take some cheap shots for this, but I am not familiar with these guys. I assume it must be Panama's line because that's where the layover is. Has anyone any info on this line? Also are there any problems with a layover from the US in Panama. (Pan. City) |

I am looking for some specific info. Are they known to be on time? Baggage fees? Are there any hassles I might expect? Are there going to be any problems with a short layover in Pan City since I know I am going to have to thru baggage and customs? Also am I going to have language problems in Pan City, because my Spanish is weak. |

Lomo: I have never been delayed on Copa. I have never been charged a bag fee, but that might be because I booked with my CO Mastercard...I still don't think they charge for a checked bag though. I almost ALWAYS get upgraded to first class (happens on TACA too when I ask if space is available). Some of the cutest FAs I've seen have been Copa crews. Panama is easy to connect through. You [b]won't have to go through baggage claim, nor immigration, unless you plan to leave the airport[/b]. If you are going straight through to SJO, just go to your gate. Only complaint I have about PTY is that there is no smoking bar there. Short flight (50 min) to SJO from there. Oh yeah, drinks and food are free on Copa.-CH |

I have flown Copa a lot, usually Los Angeles to Panama to Managua. Always on time. Always professional. Never a problem. Excellent equipment. I never check luggage so can't comment on that. LA Cowboy |

I flew Continental/Copa to Medellin last year. From what I could tell, the Airline is run just like Continental. The biggest difference was that COPA still served a free sandwich and beverage on a three hour flight, and the liquor was free. When I flew Continental last night they said the flight was to short for a beverage so they only offered us water. Cheap Bastards! |

I've made 10 trips or so with COPA, and always have been satisfied with its performance on the ground and in the air. |

Only flew with Copa once MIA to MDE, but was very pleased. They served a hot meal & had gorgeous FA's, at least on that flight.

I just booked a fare on Copa in Business Class from LAX to SJO for $902 -- out the door for early December. I think that's a pretty good fare. |

That is a great fare for business class from LAX. I paid 900 a year ago for for R/T first class from IAH. They rape us here from Houston, and I have had it explained why, even though it makes no sense. |
