I was about to start a thread on this fare, since it is booked in H and it gives 1.5 EQM in OnePass. Just booked MIA-PTY-MEX-PTY-MIA for $224.

Don't use copaair.com, since it will not price it in H. Went to Orbitz and got it.

Not only LAX, but JFK, MCO, MIA and IAD to MEX via PTY.

Just bought a couple of round trips from MIA to MEX and also it alouds one ways for $104 USD, but not the other way around. Bought it through Orbitz.com.

By the way, it is an H fare and gives you 1.5 EQMs on One Pass and it is available from today until December 25th.

Also, looks like it is a mistake, as an H fare is in the top of the bucket.

Can any one post the fare rules. I can´t seem to find when I display them in Orbitz or ITA if the ticket is changeable for free, because it is in an H fare and one of the top fares for CM.

Open Jaws are possible. You can book JFK/IAD/MCO/MIA/LAX-MEX-JFK/IAD/MCO/MIA/LAX.

No. This fare earns 150% EQM on CO, but nothing on any other *A carrier, AFAIK.

I just booked one of these. I did not see where to enter in CO FF#. It was asking for a COPA number.

Is there such a thing? I thought Copa didn't have its own frequent flyer program at all and simply piggybacked off of CO Onepass.

LAX is harder to price online but ITA still has it. JFK is still there. I'm booked. It has a 9ish hour layover in PTY on the outbound and can do the afternoon departure on the return.

And, yes, the Copa OnePass number is the same as a Continental OnePass number. It is the same program.

JFK the same price?

JFK-LAX-PTY-MEX-back yields 21000 EQM with the bonus.

Platinum + 4SWU + miles= $1100

How about upgrades on COPA for CO Platinums?

Any experience there? I had heard some good things but not sure if this flight would be a realistic upgrade.

I don't think JFK-LAX-PTY-MEX would work as COPA doesn't fly JFK-LAX - you'd need to add another fare to it and it probably wouldn't be H class to offer 1.5 EQM. I tried to price it on ITA and it puts me on UA flights for JFK-LAX for a total of $452.

Notice that LAX-PTY-MEX offers 13500 EQM for $224 - that's much less than 2 cpm!

awpeters · Feb 1, 10, 2:32 pm

is H refundable on Copa?

It is on AA, for example, and as 4th bucket Coach, you'd think it probably would be.

But I can't find it in the fare rules from EF or ITA
