Costa Rica is not currently planning to mandate that international tourists receive a coronavirus vaccine as a requirement for entry, the Tourism Board said.
Interjet, a low-cost airline based in Mexico, canceled all of its Sunday flights and stranded thousands of passengers as reports surfaced that it had failed to pay for jet fuel.
Air France, British Airways and KLM will resume flights to Costa Rica over the upcoming weeks, announced Aeris, which manages Juan Santamaría International Airport (SJO).
Costa Rica’s COVID policies hope to balance health with economic reactivation, but the relaxed tourist requirements come at a time when global coronavirus cases are skyrocketing and deaths are rising.
Costa Rica began a gradual opening of air borders in August after the total closure of borders in March, when the first cases of the coronavirus were detected.
