destination
¡Costa
Rica Pura vida!
Travelling
to Costa Rica
International
Airports
Commercial international flights to
Costa Rica land in two airports: Juan
Santamaría International Airport
(situated 17km or 11 miles northwest
of San José) and Daniel Oduber
International Airport (in the city
of Liberia in the Guanacaste province).
If
your incentive program plans on starting
or ending the trip in San José,
visit the mid-Pacific region or making
a roundtrip of the country, it is
advisable to arrive at the San José
International Airport, which offers
a modern brand new terminal.
If
your employee appreciation program
will be visiting the North Pacific
area only, then the Liberia International
Airport is recommended. This airport
has been recently upgraded and is
a preferred landing spot for charter
and private flights. Delta, Continental
and American Airlines make stops at
this airport.
Access
A wide range of scheduled and chartered
airlines fly into San José
International Airport and Liberia
International Airport on the north-west,
linking the country with major cities
in North and South America and Europe.
