The Tocumen Airport representative welcomed Air Canada, after 32 months of absence due to the Covid-19 pandemic. “Thank you for resuming again the non-stop passenger services between the brother country of Canada and Panama. There is no doubt that the reactivation of this route is extremely important”.
Air Canada’s Director of International Operations noted that the airline has been in Panama for eight years, interrupted only by the pandemic. “It is a source of pride and great excitement to reconnect Canada and Panama after two years of long waiting. It is worth remembering that we reach six continents with a fleet of environmentally friendly aircraft. We hope that Panamanians will continue to refer us. Our entire team on the ground and on board works every day to offer the best service,” he said.
