Tonight I will be heading from Boquete Panama to pickup my son and two of his friends in Paso Canoas, the frontier with Costa Rica. These intrepid adventurers set outlast night from Tucson, AZ, flew into Atlanta, then into San Jose, Costa Rica. They then they headed for a bus to the frontier.

Why you should ask, they could have flown into Tocumen in Panama City? Money, they each saved $300 flying into San Jose. It is going to take more tourists to lower airfare into Panama. For now San Jose,Costa Rica is a bargain price compared to Panama City.

The options are basically the same for Panama City to David or San Jose to the Frontier, or even David. Fly Air Panama or take a bus. If you time your flights correctly and only do carry one luggage, you can change planes in San Jose for David without leaving the terminal; try that in Panama City.
