Because my hotel got me in a panic I decided to get a taxi at 4.30am. Took 25 minutes from Miraflores to get tho the airport. The only traffic was the short delay while the inbound cars had their docs checked at the security checkpoint. Took about 2 extra minutes.

When you walk in the building turn left for the Copa check-in desks, they are at the far end. There were three desks, check-in, we check-in and priority. The priority guy waved me over even though there was only one person ahead at the other two desks. Security and immigration took a couple of minutes each.

Once inside I bought what I thought was a bargain breakfast and then realized that the prices are all in USD in the terminal so I had just paid $22 USD for breakfast.

My Uber app showed plenty of cars available at that time of morning.

Boarding began about 45 minutes before departure.
