Pros: "Well-organized boarding process, friendly staff."

Cons: "Old plane. No USB port. One movie for all passengers then went to tv episodes of Friends"
Pros: "Amezing service"
Cons: "Great airline. Amazing service."
Cons: "I called in advanced and requested a vegetarian meal. Apparently no one was told l, and they were no vegetarian options available. Also, there was only one movie running in a general tv without any other entertainment options. This should not be allowed on an international flight >5 hours."
Pros: "The crew was great. They were very attentive throughout the course of the flight."

Cons: "3 hour delay turned into four because of incompetent boarding. 15 minutes at gate to dock plane"
Pros: "COPA offers excellent service! Their newer aircrafts have individualized monitors on each head rest for added control of what one wishes to view. Clean and spacious aircraft. Nice crew and bountiful beverage/ meal service. Fair luggage allowance and flight options will keep us coming! Keep it up!"
Cons: "Panamanian TSA has a second checkpoint at each gate. This means you get the general check we are all used to, but at the gate there's a second patdown and x-ray where liquids purchased inside the terminal are discarded or you have to exit the gate area to drink it! People had to give up their sealed, duty free bags and we had to give up our cans of soda we had just purchased. Fuller disclosure- in Spanish and English- should be given to patrons at stores and BEFORE entering the gate to avoid displeasure. We know drug traffickers are slick, but innocent people don't appreciate the inconvenience. My son's blunt tip, plastic, safety scissors were also taken at this airport because of the thin "blade" affixed to the plastic, but it left the USA in his school pencil case without any issues on our way there."
Pros: "Crew dedication"
Cons: "Cramped seating 5E"
Pros: "-Nice little breakfast meal after takeoff -More legroom than most coach seats -Efficient crew"
Cons: "De-planing could use some improvement. People who do pre- boarding due to disability or who have small children slow down the process of others trying to get off the plane."
Pros: "Crew was friendly and attentive."
Cons: "We had the last seats in the plane, were served the last, and no offer was made to move us to open seats further up. Multiple people stood in the aisle to use the restrooms (6-7) which meant they were in our faces (I thought the US limited how many people can stand in line on a plane post 9/11); people also got up and did not pay attention to seat belt signs throughout the flight and the crew did nothing. The film was the same one shown Southbound, not as listed in magazine. We were late taking off and late landing (the latter beyond the captain's control, don't know about why we were late to take off)."
Pros: "The flight was quick"
Cons: "My tray was broken so I had to eat on my lap . Seat didn’t recline and no entertainment"
Pros: "Nice crew, very helpful."
Cons: "No vegetarian menu."
Pros: "Everything"
Cons: "I was quite disappointed once again that I was never informed that in order to have a vegetarian meal it had to be ordered ahead of time and the only meal options both were meat. So I was served a single roll and a salad aka (one slice of cucumber and about 3 fork fulls of lettuce) but hey that's better than getting nothing on the 1st dlight. Also I was given an exit seat and was literally the first person in line that morning to check in but when I boarded I was told I had to move my seat because I didn't speak spanish... So why assign me the seat in the first place. Also flight was delayed about an hour and a half NOT due to weather conditions."

Inconvienced family that had to drive all the way to Orlando, take time from work, waiting for me to return and I now I'm 5 hours late. Staff was not helpful and advised we go talk to customer service at the airport. The flight was also not the smoothest and left many unhappy customers, that won't return to Copa. I understand things happen but they were very unfriendly about this situation..what's the point of spending all the $ on insurance for this situation to occur and there's no compinsation for it."
Pros: "Got us home on time, safely and relatively cost effective. The crew was very friendly and professional."
Cons: "Seats were small and the flight was crowded and full of crying kids. The airplane was pretty warm which wasn't something I've ever experienced in flight and got quite uncomfortable. At any given time there was a line of 5+ for the bathroom and there was no non-meat meal option so from our 7 am flight through our connecting flight home we had nothing to eat."

Cons: "I was 5 minutes late checking in for my flight from LAX to Cali. Another airlines was 7 hours late delivering me to LAX. My situation dictated that I arrive in to Cali at a specific time. I couldn't wait for 24 hours for the next flight. So I booked a new flight to get me to Cali on time. Here's the problem.. when I went to check for the Cali to LAX flight the gate agent informed me that because I failed to check in for the flight to Cali. That that cancels the entire ticket.

Cons: "Why did they have everyone board and then decide we needed to wait? Uncomfortable and frustrating."
Cons: "Served drink as they prepped for landing"

Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Everything"
Pros: "nothing"
Cons: "everything"
