Copa currently operates from Toncontin International Airport in Tegucigalpa. However, the airline is permanently moving its operations to the new Palmerola International Airport. This move is in compliance with the provision published in Gazette No. 35,734 of October 1, 2021, which informs the official decision to move international and domestic commercial flight operations to the new airport for security reasons.
In addition, since the announcement of the move to this new location, the airline has been working closely with the Honduran aviation authorities and airport management to ensure a safe and efficient transition to the new airport. From this new infrastructure, Copa Airlines affirms its commitment to the development of the region, connecting Honduras with its extensive route network throughout the continent through the Hub of the Americas at Tocumen International Airport in Panama.
