In addition to the picturesque shore, this city also boasts a number of other attractions. Shoot down the coast at Miracle Strip Amusement Park, ride the waves at Shipwreck Island Waterpark, and find serenity at Camp Helen State Park. During your sojourn, give in to some retail therapy at Pier Park, charter a boat in the Gulf of Mexico, and kiteboard at nearby Shell Island.

Planning Your Trip

If you’re still deciding on when to book airfare to Panama City Beach, consider whether or not you want to sunbathe and swim in the ocean. If you’re looking to spend the majority of your time on the beach, schedule a visit between May and October, when the weather is sunny and warm. Springtime is pleasant, but the beach can get overrun by spring breakers partying between March and April. As for the winter months, the weather does get slightly cooler—so you may not want to jump in the ocean—but it’s still warm enough to comfortably partake in outdoor activities on dry land.

Do you have any tips for my flight to Panama City Beach?

  • What you pack in your carry-on luggage can make the difference between a comfortable flight, and a restless one. Start with the most important stuff, like a valid ID (like your passport) and your travel documents. Once they’re packed, throw in any medications you might need. Next? It’s all about comfort. A quality neck pillow, earphones and a juicy novel will help the hours fly by while you’re soaring through the sky.
  • There’s a lengthy list of items you should not pack in your carry-on too. Flammables, sharps and explosives are strictly prohibited in the cabin — they often include knives of any sort, aerosol cans and flares. Some sporting equipment, like baseball bats and martial arts weapons, are also not allowed in your hand luggage. Visit your airline’s website for details about what you can and can’t take on board.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Whether traveling short or long-haul, layering up is key to flying comfortably. Choose loose, breathable fabrics that will keep you fresh and pack a pullover to cope with any in-flight cabin temperature variations. Your feet will be happy in a pair of sneakers or flat shoes.
  • Lessen your risk of developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition which can be caused by sitting for long periods of time, by regularly walking around the cabin. Otherwise, do some gentle lower limb exercises in your seat. If you’re at higher risk of developing DVT, think about wearing compression socks.

How can I get a cheap last-minute flight to Panama City Beach?
To score a cheap, spur-of-the-moment flight to Panama City Beach, you’ll need to be flexible. If you can, have a bit of wiggle room with the dates you can travel. It also pays to have some flexibility with your departure and arrival points, airline choice, flight times and possible layovers or stops.
Where can I learn more about changing or canceling my flight to Panama City Beach?
Most flights are free to cancel within 24 hours of making the reservation. However, some flights are non-refundable, and you may receive a flight credit from the airline to use for a future booking. For more information, please visit our Customer Service Portal.
