Fall Savings with Copa Air

If you were thinking of visiting Latin America, this fall could be a good time in terms of air fare. Copa Airlines http://www.copaair.com is a Panama-based airline that is offering unusually low prices on flights from North America to Central and South America.

For example, a round-trip from Montreal to San Jose, Costa Rica is as low as $376, while Montreal to Quito starts at $730. From Toronto, a flight to Guatemala City is as low as $483 return if you book quickly. Similar prices apply to flights from Copa's U.S. gateways.

Travellers into apps, a category that so far does not include me, might want to book these fares with the Hopper app http://www.hopper.com.

Fall is a good time to travel in South America, since it is equivalent to our spring, though usually without the snow. I visited Argentina in November, and found the weather just about perfect.
