Copa Airlines has taken a key step in its South American expansion by inaugurating its new route to Tucumán, enhancing connectivity between northern Argentina and the rest of the continent. With this new service, the Panamanian carrier now serves six destinations in Argentina via its renowned Hub of the Americas, located at Tocumen International Airport in Panama City.

Tucumán: A New Gateway to the Continent

The start of operations to Tucumán complements the resumption of flights to Salta, which took place this past Tuesday. According to Pedro Heilbron, CEO of the airline, the addition of both routes “represents an opportunity to further promote tourism, trade, and economic development between these countries.”

He added that these flights not only provide secure and efficient connections for Argentinians but also offer the chance to discover the wonders of Panama through the Panama Stopover program. This initiative turns a layover into an enriching tourist experience at no additional airfare cost, while also boosting Panamanian tourism.
