The Costa Rican airline Sansa is launching its first international service next month with flights to Nicaragua’s Emerald Coast, near the popular destinations of Granada, Ometepe Island and San Juan del Sur.
American would become the second major U.S. airline to take advantage of loosened restriction on travel between the two longtime enemies, after JetBlue launched direct charter flights between New York and Havana last month.
Planes and flight crew member uniforms will display the colors of the Costa Rican flag and passengers will be served gallo pinto and casados on flights lasting more than 90 minutes.
