As a local Panama City resident, I can say that once the construction starts for the 4th bridge, getting to Albrook soon may be more difficult than PTY. Even without that, I would opt for a flight on an E190, likely upgraded, earning miles, than whatever is offered by Air Panama.

Several months ago I wondered by Copa didn't fly there, until I found out an E190 probably couldn't land safely on Boca's 4900 ft runway as I measured in google earth. Seems like the only way to extend that runway would be a landfill out into the bay there.
