Many thanks in advance for your input!
It's not enough time to leave the airport. Don't even think about it. You need a minimum of five or six hours to visit the Canal. It's literally on the far side of Panama City from the airport. The traffic can be horrific.

The Copa Club is pretty poor IMO. It was still under construction last time I was through there in October.
