Does Copa offer video programming during shorter flights?
I know UA typically shows short-subject programs on shorter video-equipped flights and wondered if Copa does that same thing on their 737 flights between intra-Central America cities (like SAL/GUA/SJO-PTY).

Despite the fact that I have flown dozens of flights in the past few years both MDE-PTY and MDE-BOG on COPA, I can't answer your question.
That's because unless you are on one of the new 737-8's with the personal IFE, there is never anything worth viewing on the COPA overhead video, even if you are on a 5-hour flight. So, it never occurs to me to look at the screens. IMO. even if COPA did offer a short subject, you will be much better entertained by a book, newspaper or just staring blankly at the seatback in front of you.
