Caracas to Panama City flights: nonstop or one stop
Flights leave Caracas (CCS, Simón Bolívar airport) and land at Panama City's Tocumen airport (PTY). In those searches Copa had two nonstops a day from Caracas, one in the morning and one in the afternoon.
Avianca flies it with a stop in Bogota, from 6 h 10 min. It's longer, but it helps when the nonstops on your date are full or the times don't work for you.
Tocumen is also where many trips connect on to Miami and other US cities. Headed to the US? See Caracas to Miami flights.
