The Costa Rica Tourism Board and United Airlines celebrated the first of two new routes for the U.S. carrier to Juan Santamaría International Airport (SJO).
Four major airlines resumed service to Costa Rica's busiest international airport in a move that coincided with the country easing entry requirements for tourists.
Costa Rican citizens who return to the country can now avoid a 14-day quarantine, even if they haven’t remained in an authorized country for two weeks.
United Airlines plans to fly 38 times weekly between the United States and Costa Rica by December, the carrier announced Friday in partnership with the Costa Rica Tourism Board (ICT).
