TOCUMEN International Airport [Airport Code: PTY] in Panama City, has just completed a $90 million renovation and expansion and is considered the most modern airport in the region. Tocumen is also considered a regional hub airport, and Panama s national carrier, Copa Airlines, connects to over 40 destinations in 21 countries in North, Central and South America.
On the front-page of their first edition of 2008,

You can get there quicker than you can get to Tallahassee. It really is much easier and faster to travel to Panama than many people might imagine.
