I was thinking of visiting Panamá this summer but I'm not really sure if that's the right time to go. Whenever I search, fares are nearly $800 and aren't one-stop (my options are from CLT, RDU, and GSO). I was originally thinking of doing a multi-stop through SJU (stay for a day to say hello to my family then continue) but I don't think I can look at that again XD.
When is the best/cheapest time to visit Panamá? I always go to SJU over the Christmas season and that's usually under $600 per person, but every time I check PTY it's always more expensive than that. Would flying SJU-PTY-SJU for a weekend be cheaper? Or would CLT/RDU/GSO-XYZ-PTY-XYZ-CLT/RDU/GSO during Halloween/Easter/other be cheaper?
(I have family in both SJU and PTY, so hotel prices aren't a problem)
