How to get through airport security fast when traveling to Panama City
Your adventure to Panama City begins as soon as you’ve finished all the security checks. Here are some helpful tips and hints to make sure you pass through quickly:

  • Keep your passport and boarding pass within easy reach. They’ll be the first things you’ll be told to produce by airport security.
  • You’ll have to put your tunes on pause for a short while. Earphones need to be taken off and placed in a tub for X-raying. The same applies to items such as heavy jackets and belts.
  • Ensure your laptop and electronic devices are within reach. These items need to be put through the X-ray machine separately.
  • When you get to the security checkpoint, you’ll be asked to place all creams, liquids and gels in a separate bin for scanning. Make sure they’re all in containers smaller than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and sealed in a clear zip-lock bag.
  • Loosen your shoelaces before approaching the body scanner. Depending on the sort of shoes you’re wearing, security may tell you to take them off.
  • Pack any pocketknives or other pointy metal items in your checked luggage. Airport security won’t permit these on the plane.

How to find cheap flights

What is the best day to buy a plane ticket?

Airfares offered on Friday tend to be the cheapest, according to flight demand on Travelocity.ca in 2021. Purchasing your airfares on a Thursday or Saturday can also provide better value, however our advice if you’re looking to save money is to avoid booking on a Wednesday or Sunday. Our data shows that those two days have the highest ticket values on average, so keep this in mind if you’re browsing flight deals.

 

What are the cheapest days to fly?

Frequent travellers may already know this, earlier in the week is often the cheapest time to fly. Flights departing on a Monday are the cheapest of the week. Since flights towards the middle of the week tend to be more popular, this causes the prices to rise. This is why, on average, airfares booked on Travelocity.ca in 2021 were most expensive for Wednesday departures.

 

How far in advance can you book a flight?

Here’s the deal: It is typically possible to start comparing international airfares on Travelocity.ca up to 12 months in advance. However, it does depend on the carrier as not all airlines release their prices that far out. According to our 2021 flight demand trends, last minute planners can still bag a bargain with some of the cheapest fares appearing 2-4 weeks prior to their travel dates.

*According to flight demand on Travelocity.ca from January to December 2021. Savings are subject to change and may vary depending on selections made.
