-First option: Book in person at the airport or at Copa's David office.  +You have to document your discount each time - Copa is no longer storing jubilado details for future use. 
-Second option: Go online and book your ticket and place it on 24 hr. hold.  + 
-Prior advice was: Email a copy of your Cedula or Permanent Resident card to customer service contactcenter@copaair.com They will reply with a registration number.  23 Feb 2024 this didn't work for me; I received a reply telling me I had to do it online with their form.  Here is the first webpage linked in their reply: https://help.copaair.com/hc/es-419/requests/new?tf_9854964819863=dc.descuento_de_jubilado&ticket_form_id=9855457716503&_gl=1*1kuoo6w*_ga*MjA2OTYyNzQ5Ni4xNjE4OTUxNzYx*_ga_SEJ8DB2YNH*MTcwODcxODQ4Ni4xMC4wLjE3MDg3MTg0ODYuNjAuMC4w+First option: Book in person at the airport or at Copa's David office. They only store your jubilado information for the day's purchase.

-Also 24 Feb 2024, Dee Pritchard in WhatsApp group chatter stated: Once you do the online jubilado one time, Copa puts your information on file, and it is super easy the next time. Also, you can ask at the David office to have your cedula put on file so that they have it then next time doing it online is easier (paraphrased).+June 2025: I got a confirmation email after submitting the form, then lickety-split, I received another email from customer service confirming the discount, and instructing me to call the reservation customer service center. It included a service number.
    
-Then call the reservation number for Copa. Chose the option for a booking already made, and when you give them the email registration number, they will confirm your reservation. They may expedite your registration on this call if you haven't already sent in your cedula. If your info is in their system you get the discount and can pay immediately.+Then call the reservation number for Copa: +507-217-2672. Chose the option for managing a booking already made, and when you give the reservation code (it never asked for the service number given in the email), you will be connected with an agent. The agent will confirm your reservation, the discounted price, and then you can pay immediately. The call took less than 15 minutes, including navigating the phone tree to get to the agent.
