Denver will welcome a new international airline later this year with the announcement Copa Airlines will fly direct from Panama City.
Copa will operate flights four times a week nonstop and becomes DIA’s eighth foreign-flag carrier.
"New air service continues to drive economic activity and create new jobs in Denver," Mayor Michael Hancock said.
"Copa’s new service to Panama City will further strengthen Denver as a global destination for commerce, trade and culture."
Starting December 11, flights depart Denver on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays using Boeing 737-800 Next-Gen aircraft.
"Copa plays a significant role in the development of business and tourism throughout the Americas. We expect the addition of Denver, our newest U.S. destination, to generate business and leisure travel not only between Colorado and Panama, but also to our more than 55 destinations throughout Latin America and the Caribbean," said Copa Airlines CEO Pedro Heilbron.
United Airlines previously flew to Panama City from Denver but scrapped the route early last year.
