How to get there

Air Panama has a daily flight from Panama City’s Albrook Airport (the national airport) to the different islands. The Minorca is usually stationed in Corazon de Jesus where the captain will await you upon arrival at the airstrip.

You can book a flight online; the flight leaves at 6 in the morning and returns at 6:40. If there’s a change in the flight schedule the air company will contact you, but to make sure you’re not waiting unnecessary it’s best to call them a day ahead.
