Another benefit of J fare is free SDC to later or earlier flight! The one config with ife and updated interior looks way better than their old birds lol

Returned on the 3am flight. Breakfast seemed to be generally served about 90 minutes before landing (I had slept up until then, so not sure what occurred before). Choices were a potato type dish or the scrambled eggs. Get the potato dish as eggs were not great. Rest was fine:
Full bedding and amenity kits provided to all in J:

Flew BOG-PTY and PTY-YYZ last week. The Bogota to Panama leg featured one bottle of water in business class.....I'd ....., but this was a comp upgrade. The longer flight featured a full meal with chicken and beef options. Also received an appetizer of nuts and a choice of drink (full bar). It looks like the longer flights have returned to normal in-flight meal services.

I'm on PTY-MDE in a couple weeks in paid J... good to know it's deserving of that whole bottle of water!!! Thanks for the heads up. Excellent value

Hey all!
Does anyone know what kind of food / drinks are offered on Economy legs in Copa these days? I'm wondering whether to pay an extra 20k United miles to upgrade a CTG-PTY-MEX to Business. If there's a beer and a snack in economy I can live with that.
If "Ron del mes" is back I'll probably pay lol, I used to love that.

In flight less of 3:30 you only will get bevarge and Pretzel and cookies.
The hot food return to Business in flight over 3:30 hours but in my opinion it is still far from returning to the variety of quality that Copa had before the Covid.

I have just been moved from a UA flight to a CM flight due to delays with UA leaving PTY today. On my way to Denver right now. I have just been offered Whiskey, Rum, and other liquors when I asked if they only have Wines and Beers still!
Will report back after landing

Sorry for the delay in replying. They had 2 types of rum, Ron Abuelo (Panama, unsure how many years) along with Flor De Cana (Nicaragua). I ordered the latter and when she came back with it I asked her what bottle it was - turns out it is the 18 year, which is what they had before! They did not have Diplomatico (Venezuela) unfortunately 
This was the meal:
The main was fantastic and full of flavor. I think it was described upthread too. Would have happily had a larger portion and will get it again if its on offer

I'm taking CM278, a 5:08am departure from EZE. How does the meal service work in business class?
Do they serve breakfast immediately upon departure? Or is this considered a late-night flight where they only serve it closer to landing?
Thanks for your help!

In J, you can ask for your meal at any time. If there is pushback, which there should not be, remind them that anytime dining is one of the perks
