May I know the express bus schedule from Panama to David. Thank you
I need to catch a bus from Panama City to David on October 12. I haven’t found a bus schedule on this site only from David to Panama City
Hi, can anyone help us?
We leave to Costa Rica this Weekend and were told that we need a bus ticket to proof that we are leaving Costa Rica in November (UVITA-DAVID) in order to be boarding our flight to Costa Rica in Germany. But so far we cannot find any of the local bus online, selling these tickets. Tracopa for example says: No tickets available. Probably because of Corona…any one knowing a Busline that still sells tickets from CR out of the country eg. Panama or Nicaragua?? We are aware if the borders are still closed in November, that the bus obviously won’t leave.
Thank you for a link where booking still is possible

Is the schedule the same as pictures in web site now for bus from David to Panama City? Someone told me we have to buy ticket at terminal santiago 24 hours in advance now because of Covid and then take bus next day. Or can we just pay on bus as says on web site. (English please, no habla espano)
If we do or don’t do it, someone will laugh
The bus from David to Panama City leaves every hour. The day buses stop at every city along the way, take 7-8 hours, and cost $15. The night bus is express, runs 10pm-2am, and costs $18. The night bus can be reserved in advance but the day bus can’t. Purchase the day bus within 30 mins of scheduled departure or pay on the bus. The buses have two floors, are equipped with a/c, and are comfy. I took the one at noon and it arrived in Panama City (Grand Terminal – Allbrook Mall) at 7:15pm. I have photos of the bus schedule but there’s no option to upload them here. The exact times can change day-to-day so maybe check beforehand if you need a very specific time. You can catch the bus from the main bus station, just search for Terminal David Santiago on Maps and it will be right across the street.
Hi,
is it possible to book the bus from Panama City to David and Almirante in advance or online?
Thanks,

Took the 8Am bus from Panama City to David two weeks ago. Price was $13.40 and took about 7 hours with one stop in Santiago. No problems at all in fact was fun. Am looking for a current schedule for my next trip in 3 months .
