Costa Rica has had
international airline service to San Jose, the capital city, for
decades. There are San Jose (SJO) arrivals from and departures to
all continents on a wide variety of carriers. To get to the North
Pacific Coast after arriving in San Jose, you can take a ? hour
domestic flight on Sansa or NatureAir to Liberia or Tamarindo, rent
a car for the 5-hour drive, or arrange other ground transfers.

International service to Liberia, Costa
Rica, is relatively new; beginning at the end of 2002. The service
to and from Liberia (LIR) consists of a rapidly growing volume of
scheduled and charter flights from the United States and Canada. The
next high season already expects more than 50 weekly flights. All
the prime beach locations on Costa Ricas North Pacific Coast are
within an hours ground transportation of this new airport, which is
why passenger volume through Liberia is skyrocketing.
