How much is a flight to Panama?
Lots of fantastic deals were up for the taking this week, with return flights to Panama ranging between $198 and $1,469. But it was jet-setters starting their trip from San José (SJO) who scored the best bargains. One-way flights to Panama fell to just $95.
How to book the cheapest flight to Panama?
With Orbitz, you'll find some of the most amazing flight deals around from a big selection of airlines. But if you'd like to heighten your chances of nabbing cheap flights to Panama, here are a few pointers we think will help:

  • Consider taking off from or landing at alternative airports for a better deal. Enter your preferred departure and arrival points in the form fields, then click on the 'Nearby airports' function below. It will list the available options.
  • If you're flexible with your itinerary, click on the 'Show flexible dates' link. It'll show the flight deals for the days around your chosen departure. Airfares often vary depending on what day of the week it is.
  • To filter your results, hit 'Show options.' You can search based on seating class, airlines, and nonstop and refundable flights. You can also select your preferred departure and arrival times under 'Sort & Filter' to the left.
  • The early bird gets the most impressive deals, so book as soon as you've worked out your travel dates. The cheapest fares go like hotcakes and prices generally climb as the departure date nears.
  • Consider bundling your flights, hotels and car rental into an Orbitz package deal — the more you book, the more you save.
  • Flying during the busy season means pricey airfares. Try to travel outside of popular dates, such as Thanksgiving, New Year's Eve and Easter.

What is the best time to book a flight to Panama?
Generally speaking, January is the ideal time to book your plane ticket. This is followed by February and August. Keep this in mind while searching for a cheap flight to Panama.
What day of the week is the cheapest to book a flight to Panama?
Land a fantastic flight deal by booking on a Tuesday, Wednesday or Saturday. These are typically the best days to pick up cheap airfares to Panama.

What do I need for the flight to Panama?
There's so much to sort out for any big trip, so it's useful to get a bit of help along the way. Here are a few suggestions to ensure you're ready for your flight:

  • Firstly, you'll need to take all applicable travel documents and identification. How much depends on your place of departure. When booking, you're encouraged to use the correct name, gender and birth date listed on your current ID.
  • Fill your carry-on bag with snacks and activities and watch time whiz by on this medium-haul flight. If you can, get on the airport's Wi-Fi and save your favorite playlist or podcast to your phone or tablet before take off.
  • Never mind what the season is at your destination, plane cabins are known to get chilly. Bring an extra layer on your journey to stay warm and comfy.

Savvy travelers have a talent for finding business or first-class fares to Panama without the eye-watering price tag. Take their lead with these helpful tips:

  • Be more flexible with your travel dates and hold out for sales or exclusive offers on business or first-class airfares.
  • Low-cost airlines offer business-class seats at affordable prices. Ditch the full-service carriers and go with one of these cheaper options.
  • Take advantage of your airline's flight rewards program and use points to upgrade your seat. Alternatively, you can try bidding for an upgrade in online auctions.
