Flying
Tocumen International Airport (PTY): Panama’s Tocumen is the largest and most important airport in Panama and Central America with flights to more than 65 cities between America and Europe. The airport is also popular for connections between the Caribbean, South America, North America and Central America. Tocumen is located about 30 minutes from Panama’s downtown center, and arriving by taxi, shuttle or rental car is manageable among the adjacent toll road, Corredor Sur.
Albrook Airport: Air Panama has a charter flight that leaves out of Albrook airport twice daily. The $70 each way flights only take 30 minutes and will take you to an airport in Chitre, which is an hour from Pedasi. From there, you can rent a car and drive, take a small bus, or taxi into Pedasi.:
Rio Hato Scarlett Martinez International Airport: is an airport located in Rio Hato. Flights from Canada arrive from Montreal, Toronto and Quebec direct to Rio Hato.
Shuttles, Buses and Rental Cars
Bus: Take the bus from Albrook bus terminal (connected to Albrook mall). This will cost you under $10 and get you all the way to Las Tablas, which is 35 minutes from Pedasi. From here, you can take a smaller bus or taxi into Pedasi.
Rent a Car: Rent a car in the city at the airport and make the 5 hour drive yourself. The roads are good enough to drive here, but I wouldn’t advise leaving the city after 2 pm. It’s not a good idea to drive at night because there are dogs, pedestrians, and many cars without functioning lights. Also, the traffic leaving the city is horrible during the afternoon. One thing to remember about renting a car, is if you rent a 4×4, you will have to leave a hefty deposit through your credit card. Pedasi does not require a 4×4, but if you are traveling beyond Playa Venao, you will most likely benefit from one.
