Insights shared by verified travelers who flew the route from South America to Florida 
ChristopherFlew with Aerolineas ArgentinasEZE-MIASep 2024
I will say the restaurants (bars) and pharmacies were open well after 1 or 2am basically all night which helped since my flight came in at 1:30am and my connecting flight from Buenos Aires to Miami wasn't boarding until 7:00 or so.
MatthewFlew with LATAM AirlinesLIM-MIASep 2024
Had to go to 2 security checks for connecting flights and could not take water/soda purchased in terminal onto the flight.... so plan accordingly
Verified travelerFlew with American AirlinesSCL-MIAMar 2024
The airlines offers free checking of your carry-on bags when the flight is crowded and overhead space is limited. However, one must ask for this service. If pasta or beef offered for your meal, do not take the beef unless you like dog food.

The flight was 30 minutes delayed, but the boarding gate's panels indicated it was on time. This was inaccurate.

The flight was 30 minutes delayed, but the boarding gate's panels indicated it was on time. This was inaccurate.

The staff was fine in the fly, but to do check in was very poor the service.

Nothing that I like. Old plan.. old seats without maintenance. The recline seat in front of me (my was 10F) was 3 inches before my nose. It was not enough space to keep cell phone in hands. Even before landing the cruel does not pay attention to it. The worst flight of my life.

Booked my seat several weeks before and they changed it without consulting me to sit a whole family in the row sending me 15 rows to the back side, not caring if i have a short connection or any other urgent issue. The land crew made some silly excuse of a need to balance the plane because of the few passengers of the flight. Being a priority passenger it felt really a rude and careless attention from the airline

Friendly stuff , enough leg room in economy class, very efficient boarding and take off on time. There is no place to charge devices and movie collection is not to my taste. 9 hours of flight went very easy.

Very comfortable aircraft, plenty of room in the budget class. Especially liked 2 rows on each side with a 2-sitters. Staff is helpful and friendly. Food was actually very tasty. Negative- no self service electronic check-in counters which make the line much longer than could have been otherwise; outdated entertainment screens with limited choice of movies . Otherwise our experience was very pleasant and 9 hours passed without difficulty

They landed on the correct airport-no last minutes changes. Often times you hear of flight going to EZE but being diverted while on the air to AEP. It was crucial I landed in EZE as my international flight our of Argentina was taking off in 4 hours in EZE. Managed to do so and spare time to enjoy a coffee.

Old Plane with a broken seat. No food on the plane

Luggage is limited and the process for payment is convoluted. The crew is racist. Questioned why we were in upper class

My flight was cancelled over technical issues. They moved passengers to other flight that departed a few hours after mine. They left us for the 330 am flight (the original flight was 19:40). We went down the tiny Salta airport to grab dinner and suddenly they fixed the original flight and left, and never told us or made the announcement. It´s a really small airport, they could´ve looked for us, but didn´t. The flight took f with 8 passengers. And we got home after 6 am

Boarding was done by woman who insisted on strict standing in line policy; food was ok; entertainment minimal

entertainment was not good; the shoulder strap on Business class seat did not sit well across the body (more like across the neck); the food was not hot and the special meal promoted by insert in the menu was not available to us

The boarding and new bag drop-off process was confusing and causing massive delays.

Wider seats, better seat cushions, (I felt like there was a board I was sitting on). I had the chicken to eat but It neither tasted nor looked like chicken. The fruit was good.

It was a very good flight, no entertainment is the reason for not checking that box.

Our flight was cancelled and it took them 5 hours to reschedule and the next morning they said we still didn’t have a new ticket.

I travel often with LATAM, it never disappoints me. The service is great, nice crew, latest and some classic movies. I got 3 small meals, cannot complaint. I’ll definitely travel again with them.

We departed and landed on time, the aircraft was clean and comfortable, the crew were lovely. Online checkin worked well and the self service bag drop at the airport worked well. The a/c was an Airbus A330 and has been fitted with a good entertainment system with lots of choice in many languages. The price I paid for the flight was competitive with other airlines apart from the budget carriers, none of whom I was familiar with so I stuck to an airline I have used in previous visits to South America.

We didn’t have any entertainment. I tried to go online without success. The airplane was extremely cold and they didn’t have blankets.

It was good, however the airplane was really cold. We received snacks and the crew was friendly.

Had to go through security at the gate again. Had to take off shoes and go through the whole thing again even though we have global entry. They asked us to check in items bought at duty free during our layover and since we checked our luggage at the original departure airport, they forced us to check in a small backpack. None of this ever happened with other airlines. In addition, no vegetarian food option and no snacks during a 7 hr flight. Luggage limits are unusually small. This is unacceptable. Will NEVER fly Copa again and will tell friends and family to avoid this airline.

We paid extra with copa for seats near one another The plane was changed and we lost our seats We were all Separated. We have not received a refund for our seats despite emailing and calling.

We had a five hour layover in the way home from Colombia. I read the "bout your flight" email carefully before we checked bags. We had to go through security right at the gate. Almost lost our ground coffee because that airport only allows 16 ounce of coffee and we had 18. I've been to 48 countries and never heard of a coffee restriction. I can't follow a rule I don't know about. I requested they bring our coffee to our checked luggage. Instead tey gate checked our bag for free. Back to planning transfers in Dallas I guess

Tell people to remain in their seats during the meal/beverage distribution. Enforce boarding by group numbers. No one was checking. Tell people to turn their electronics speakers off. Bigger cups for drinks.

Enforce the boarding process by group numbers. Tell people to stay seated during the meal/drink distribution. It took forever to get food and drinks because people would not stay out the isle and let the crew do their jobs. Everyone wanted to go to the bathroom forcing the crew to enter and leave the isle constantly so people can pass. Tell people to keep their electronics off speaker mode. No one wants to hear phone conversations and music playing.

Placed us in the last rear row of the plane so could not recline seats because of the rear wall, and also made it more of a tight space when the passenger in front reclined their seat. While understand seat assignments, every passenger should be afforded a reclining seat. The odor control scent from the restrooms was overwhelming strong. My wife and I could not deal with it, and she suffered a terrible headache as a result. I kept getting hit by the crew since I was on the ilse seat. No apologies, nothing. They made me feel like I was supposed to take the beating for a 3 hr flight.

There was no individual at the front check in when I arrived. I waited for at least 15 minutes and walked around asking security/janitors if they could help and they did not have a solution. So I had to take my checked bag through security and they threw away some of my items. I ended up making it to the gate only a few minutes before it closed due to my waiting for an agent at check in.

The flight was delayed twice and I could not speak with anyone at the airport about checking in. The phone number to Copa - the customer service agents were polite. They are just limited at helping because they are not at the airport

We were in transit from Lima (flight at 1.10am) and we were in stand by in our flight from Panama to Washington. We wait from 4.30 am to 18.30pm in the Airport. The company give us 2 x 15 dollars for eat during the day and a personnal travel voucher of 400 dollars each. Do they buy food one time something in the Airport ??? And one of us live in France so the voucher is not usable. More than 24 hours travel !! And our place were near the toilets, with 8 children around us. The boy behind my seat stamped his feet on my back all the flight. Really Wonder full ! So we are totally unhappy with our travel. Thanks Copa Airlines....

My flight delayed and i misss the connection they send me to orlando no to tampa i have to pay a uber to my house

This flight never occurred because AA couldn’t get their act together.

Flight was good & early meaning the gate was changed. With gate change there were no wheelchairs & the gate attendant left without making sure wheelchairs were coming to the changed gate. I had to go to another attendant at another desk to get this done.

The flight crew were friendly and attentive. Food was good and they passed out ice cream and drinks awhile after Lunch was done. The ice cream was a nice treat! I found several movies to watch during the flight. There was many movies and tv shows to choose from. We flew Premium economy and there was enough leg room to be comfortable. The seats were also comfortable. I would fly AA again if the airfare isn’t expensive.

The pilots are always hauling in the sky. No issues with boarding only problem was layover was shortened too much by weather but luckily the next flight was still boarding and did not missit

During service there was a garbage/beverage spill near our seats that never was cleaned up. On a relatively short flight when we’re fortunate enough to actually have in flight movies available, the flight attendants pitching the AADVANTAGE credit card shouldn’t talk for the last 10 minutes of the flight so that we miss the end of the movie.

Waited on the runway for takeoff for 2.5 hours. Air traffic rerouted us. The plane didn't have enough fuel, so had to go back to the gate. Had to wait for a new pilot. Should have landed at 5:22. Didn't land until 9:10. Trash flight.

The boarding was pretty easy. However, the first class seats are not lay flat as other airlines (like JetBlue) has and therefore sleeping was a challenge.

Everything about the flight was lovely…We left early, arrived early, cabin crew were efficient and helpful. Flight was easy and most pleasant.

Would have thought that they would gas up plane before everyone got on board

The flight was late and we missed this connecting flight. American Airlines refused to put us anywhere for the night for their snafu. We had to find our own accommodations in Miami, and it was expensive for a crappy hotel.

Boarding was excessively slow. They do it by groups in a way that it doesn’t make sense. After business class , ppl that need assistance and any other priority group they should have ppl board from the back to the front. First rows 20+. Then 15+. Then 10, etc. having ppl sitting in the back board last makes no sense. The libe backame long as soon as ppl on rows 10 or so where told to board. The line went all the way up the ramp and tunnel for 25 mins.

Seats are very tight even in Plus, no complimentary snacks or beverage

I receive a service for what I pay, so it is fair.

A few years ago long flights 6 hours or so used to have video screens and they offered ear phones. The food cart used to come and drinks. Now absolutely nothing. Avianca is as bad as Spirit Airlines. Avianca will now be my last choice when booking my next flight.

Terrible, We had to stay in Bogota for two days due to weather but the airline did not provide for the same day flight. Only two days later

The seats were very uncomfortable. I would have upgrade or got different flight if I knew. I usually sleep in the plane but I couldn’t sleep at all. Very uncomfortable. Also no food or drink everything was to purchase, and that’s u usual for international flight.

We did not know about the bag fees until check in. They are way too high. It’s insane. We also had a huge delay and everything costed extra which was very annoying.

Boarding was somewhat confusing in that the wrong messages were being displayed at the gate. It was somewhat annoying that I got off one flight and straight onto another (from the same gate), but in between they re-checked my hand luggage and made me get rid of my water (which they charge for on the plane). I was sitting in their 'Plus' seating, but the leg room was still too small to be able to sit square. The food options on the flights are pretty cheap quality (but not price). They got me from 'A' to 'B' on-time and for a relatively good price, but the experience itself was below average.

Flew with our two children. Paid $380 to check two bags (one was overweight). They then left the bags behind on Sunday, December 21st, with all our family’s clothes and family Christmas presents. When we arrived at our destination they told us the bags had not arrived, and they thought (but didn’t know) they were still in Boston, but that there’d be a flight the next day and the bags would arrive the next day. The next day we found out there was no flight, now we’re hoping we get our bags before we fly back out. Meanwhile, trying to get any engagement or accurate information is a waste of time. The folks at the call center are just gatekeepers, who can’t connect with any departments that actually do things to solve a problem. Getting information is made deliberately difficult. My biggest regret is that I’ve had a number of awful experiences with Avianca traveling between the US and Colombia, and still let myself get suckered into buying these tickets because the schedule was great. Never again.

please see previous response; it covers the whole travel trajectory.
