Copa Airlines was founded in 1947 as the national airline of Panama. They began operations with domestic flights to three cities in Panama using Douglas DC-3s. Copa Airlines then abandoned their domestic flights in favor of international flights. En 1998, Copa formed a strategic partnership with Continental Airlines, replacing their own livery and adopting the OnePass (replaced afterwards by MileagePlus) frequent flyer program. Como de 2012, the airline employs over 8,000 gente, most of them residing in Panama and is one of the fastest growing companies in the country. It is headed by Chief Executive Officer Pedro Heilbron.

En 2012, five new destinations were announced: Las Vegas, Estados Unidos; Recife, Brasil; Willemstad, Curazao; Liberia, Costa Rica; and Iquitos, Perú. Copa is also expected to increase frequency to several destinations. The company made an interline agreement with Air Panama (Panama’s second-largest airline) which consists of the linkage of all tourist destinations in Panama with those in Latin America. The agreement became effective in June 1, 2012, when Air Panama began flights from Tocumen airport to Isla Colón, Bocas del Toro.
