Canadian cities Montreal and Toronto have direct flights to Panama City. The European cities of Frankfurt, Madrid, Paris and Amsterdam are also served. Daily flights to several cities in neighboring Colombia and Costa Rica, as well as many cities in the Americas, make Tocumen very well-connected. Despite the airport´s recent 2006 expansion and renovation, Tocumen still is convenient and maneuverable, with easy, straightforward access of one terminal to drop-off and pick-up passengers, parking, check-in, baggage, customs and more.

For travel within Panama, Albrook International Airport (Aeropuerto Internacional de Albrook “Marcos A. Gelabert”) in Panama City also services many major cities and towns within Panama, including 2-3 daily flights to David with Air Panama. However, buses, taxis and rental cars are reasonable and secure forms of domestic transportation that make travel within Panama an enjoyable learning experience.
