# Reduced prices for flights within Latin America

[Reside Panama](https://www.residepanama.com/en/reside-panama-blog/author/reside-panama)

Traveling within Latin America, especially from Panama, can be quite expensive. With Panama's major airline Copa, which mainly controls the prices, flights cost between $250 to $1200 for a round-trip flight within Latin America. 

In this article we cover the following:

*Are you missing certain information? Let us know so we can add it!*

Reduced prices for flights within Latin America

To stimulate tourism the airlines and economic authorities in Latin America met during a recent trade event. In order to lower the prices of flights, the authorities are looking to reduce the airport tax so prices of air tickets between Central American countries can decrease by up to $55.

As you cannot travel from Colombia to Panama by car (or vice versa) your only options are by boat or plane. Also, traveling by car throughout Latin America isn't as simple as going from state to state in the United States or traveling through Europe. 

The above, in combination with the high costs of flying within Latin America currently stimulate tourists to travel to Mexico, the United States, and Europe since these tickets are often cheaper than flying from Panama to Guatemala or El Salvador. 

What airlines are most common for flights from Panama?

The most common airlines that fly from Tocumen Airport to destinations in Latin America are Copa Airlines, Avianca, and [Wingo](https://www.wingo.com/en). Wingo often offers great deals on its website for flights. 

Airlines that facilitate direct flights to the United States and Europe are Copa Airlines, KLM/Air France, United Airlines, American Airlines, Iberia, and Turkish Airlines. 

From which airports in Panama City can I fly to destinations in Latin America?

The majority of flights leave from Tocumen International Airport (PTY), known as the connecting Hub of the Americas. 

Viva Air and Wingo also operate from Panamá Pacífico International Airport (BLB). A former Howard Air Force Base (United States Air Force), located in the Panama Canal Zone. 

Which airports connect to other destinations within Panama?

Tocumen International Airport (PTY) and Albrook Airport (PAC) both facilitate national flights to David (Chiriqui) and Bocas del Toro with Air Panama.
