Remember, COPA is only a stepping stone for very low time F/Os and Captains looking to build time in the EMB or Boeing. A couple of recent joiners at my current carrier related their experiences about COPA. It’s no secret about the extremely low pay, and poor terms and conditions. One is from LA and the other from Miami. The two said that jump seating from Panama back to US is very difficult at best and very stressful.
