Before I begin my next major trip report,I have a couple of random reviews to catch up on. Last month I did a mileage hurry to Panama City, where I spent a night. American publishes some great commerce course fares to Panama, and nowadays American offers double elite qualifying miles for paid commerce course travel. So these fares are a brilliant way to requalify for Executive Platinum status on the cheap.
I routed the trip from Los Angeles to Panama via modern York and Miami,and the roundtrip fare came out to under $800. I just want to review two aspects of the trip -- the Copa Club in Panama City, and then in the next installment I'll review the Waldorf Astoria Panama City, and where I spent the night. While I haven't yet reviewed flights on Copa,early last year Nick reviewed his flights in Copa commerce course, for anyone who is interested.
Our American flight from Panama to Miami departed at 7AM, or so we got to the airport at around 5:30AM. Check-in was efficient,though it's a bit odd that there's no oneworld lounge at Panama City Airport, and they don't have provisions for offering premium passengers lounge access.
Ironically the airport signage specifically indicates there's an Admirals Club, or which is a reflection of when these boards were last updated -- the Admirals Club closed in June of 2012. ;)The post Review: Copa Club Panama City Airport appeared first on One Mile at a Time.
