Commercial flights leaving Panama have mostly been suspended, but unscheduled flights may become available at short notice with carriers such as Spirit Airlines. Book directly with the airlines. Check US and Canadian entry or transit requirements. To transit through Canada, you’ll need evidence of an onward connecting flight. If you secure a flight out, you may need to show authorities a letter of ‘salvoconducto’ (safe passage) to get to the airport. Contact the Australian consulate in Panama City. If you’re remaining in Panama, check the list of essential services available on the website of the Australian Embassy in Mexico City. Minimise your risk of exposure to COVID-19. Follow the advice of local authorities. You can dial 169 for the latest information. Stay in touch with family and friends so they know you’re safe and well.
We now advise you to:
Do not travel to Panama.
