If you are concerned that you are somehow banned from booking on COPA, then don't be. As stated above, they will be happy to take your money. I would bet that the same thing happens to a lot of people.

If you don't want to worry about your CC company not clearing your card, here are some options:

1) Call the CC company ahead of time and talk to their fraud department. I don't know what country you are in, but that's how it works in the USA. You also need to do that before travel to Panama if you intend to use the card there.

2) Book the trip on line, but go to the local COPA office or the airport to pay in person.

3) Book through a local travel agent and pay them.
