Sample Costa Rica Airfare deal

As you you can see this $149 airfare is available on Alaska’s Saver level ticket, which allows one carry-on bag and one personal item. Keep in mind these Saver fares have some restrictions – they are nonrefundable, cannot be changed, and do not allow pre-selecting seats.

Some key tips for booking

  • Be flexible on your departure airport. Flying out of LAX yields the most $149 fare dates, but keep an open mind.
  • Consider flying mid-week instead of weekends for better deals
  • The return flights can be a little more expensive
  • Read the fine print for baggage fees, entry requirements and other restrictions

If you find a price that works for you, make sure you book quickly as the number of seats at these prices are not going to be many so you should book as soon as possible.

If you do book you may want to also look into getting travel insurance in case something unforeseen should happen and you need to cancel or change your dates of travel.

Tourists must meet Costa Rica’s general visa requirements and visitors must have a valid passport and proof of intent to exit the country (an outbound ticket) within 90 days.

With its convenient nonstop routes from across the West Coast, Alaska Airlines has always been a preferred way to reach Costa Rica. By jumping on this incredible airfare offer, you can get there for less than ever. Now is the perfect time to plan an affordable Costa Rica vacation!
