Taca Business class just isn't comparable to business class in most airlines.
But, YYZ to MGA via SAL is cheaper and so much better routing and on-time than AA via MIA they could serve homemade sandwiches and I would still take it. I connect to COPA on a TACA fare and the COPA service is amazingly nice for a 25 minute flight. Mixed drink and nuts and they have all of 10 minutes for the service at altitude.
Note TACA and COPA are having growing pains issuing e-tickets, COPA looks at me like I have two heads last Saturday when I appear at the gate in SAL. Lots of typing now that there are no more paper tickets. Interestingly an e-ticket for the return sold by my travel agent and issued by Hahn airlines (big German interlining airline/agency) went perfectly on COPA and TACA. Worth paying the TA fee for now.
