This year, the airline has announced F9 MIA-CUN, F9 MIA-STT, F9 MIA-PUJ, F9 MIA-GUA and F9 MIA-SAL.
I cannot understand why AV MIA-SAL as non-stop is no longer in service by now,

BA LGW-SJO with 772 hasn't returned to Costa Rica yet.
Same with DE FRA-SDQ-SJO. They also briefly flew DE MUC-SDQ-SJO.
The increase of frequencies on LH FRA-SJO from 3x to 5x weekly could be also influenced for the absence of Condor Flugdienst in Costa Rica.
IB SJO-MAD is also 5x weekly by now and LH has matched their weekly frequencies between Europe and Costa Rica.
Regards.

The airline is flying for the first time to Costa Rica outside of the European Winter Season so their service looks now more like an all-year round one.

I think the top destination from PTY is MIA:
CM: 21 fx per week
AA: 14 fx per week.
35 fx per week.
Edit:
I think it is CUN:
CM: 42 fx per week.

Interesting thing I saw, they are not increasing the banks during the day, but operating 2-3 flights per bank to the same destination (IE MIA out at 5am, 642am and 657am, 3 fights within minutes and 12n, 1212pm at noon) as an example, same for CUN), same applies out of PTY to these destinations..

I was studying the situation of Delta Air Lines in Managua.
As far as I know, the airline is not planning to return at MGA.

I cannot remember CM PTY-FLL operating on a daily basis before.
Probably CM PTY-MIA is loaded mostly with passengers originated in deep South America, where FLL is not a common destinations for them: SCL, MVD, ASU, EZE, GIG, CNF, POA and so on.
The current market of FLL heading to South America is focused to Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and even AD VCP-FLL is still in service.

I wonder if we will see the resumption of GUA-JFK/IAD with AV as they had previously mentioned. I would also like to add GUA-MEX, the largest O/D destination to Mexico from Central America. I wonder if that's in the books.

Isn't Aeromexico and Volaris already on GUA MEX? I would assume they would move to consolidate and fortify their position since Interjet has gone bust and while AV is out of the market

Yes, which why I thought Interjet's demise offered the opportunity for a new entrant. I guess we will see. AM is only operating 2 daily and Volaris 1 daily.
AM used to operate up to 4 daily flights until the MAX issues occurred while Interjet offered 2 daily flights.

My mistake. I didn't clarify that.
Besides that and according to some annonymous sources I've consulted, BLB was temporarily shut down in order to have a better passenger entrance control through MAG and PTY airports during this pandemic, as well as to proceed to renew/upgrade the current passenger terminal facilities (following Tocumen S.A.'s master plan).
So, it would take a long while until P5 returns to BLB.
