Panama Canal turns 100 years old in 2014. The Panama Canal is a 48-mile (77.1 km) ship canal in Panama that connects the Atlantic Ocean (via the Caribbean Sea) to the Pacific Ocean. The canal cuts across the Isthmus of Panama and is a key conduit for international maritime trade.

This is not true. The ship can run outside the panama canal. There are a lot of others place to travel :)
