2 flights within 2 min: PTY-GYE
 

Anyone know why there are two flights departing within 2 min of each other PTY-GYE in June? CM378 at 15:14 and CM468 at 15:16. Very strange - light loads on both...

Standard by Copa for many flights to South America (also to Miami and Orlando too)

Seat maps do not represent loads well

Count'em!
 

This makes not one, not two, but three threads about this phenomenon.

In Lima is the same. It means they have a lot of flights, passengers, more customers, more $$$$

Copa only had narrow-body Boeing 737 so the passanger capacity is limeted in crowded routes.
This happen when need compensated routes where need wide-body aircraft like Punta Cana, Buenos Aires, Cancun, Miami, Orlando and others.
I think Copacontinue with this business model, because it gives them more flexibility to adapt in the event of an increase or decrease in demand on a route.
Although I think that right now they are having problems with the availability of aircraft, because they sold the Embraer and the arrival of the 737 Max is very slow.
