COPA Airlines will accept your surfboard for a flat fee of $150 USD on most flights.

You may pack up to 3 boards in a single bag, both surfboards and bodyboards. You MUST make a reservation at least 48 hours before your flight to reserve a space for your board bag on the flight, otherwise it may not be accepted at check-in. You can do so by calling the COPA Airlines Reservations department and requesting to reserve space for your board bag. You will pay the board bag fee at the airport during check-in.

Acceptance of surfboards and bodyboards is subject to space availability, which varies by type of aircraft:
Boeing 737 MAX 9: 4 board bags or cases
Boeing 737-700: 4 board bags or cases
Boeing 737-800: 4 board bags or cases

Please make sure that equipment is properly packed in cases that are suited for transport. Copa Airlines is not liable for damage to surfboards or bodyboard. The passenger must remove the skeg or fin from the board and package it appropriately to prevent scratches

Surfboards on COPA Airlines are treated as "Large Sports Equipment", meaning they will incur a flat fee of $150 USD for all international flights. On Domestic routes, the surfboard fee is $50 USD. If your final destination is Panama, or you have a Panama Stopover included on your trip, the surfboard fee is $100.

Your surfboard bag will not be subject to overweight or oversize luggage fees. The maximum weight allowed is 100 pounds (45 kilograms), and the maximum size allowed is 115 linear inches (294 linear centimeters). [AMZ asins='B00HTA1Z6C,B00GGPK0V2,B00NIYJF6U,B0053TGSK4']
