British Airways Flies Back to Costa Rica

British Airways returned to Juan Santamaría Airport after more than 18 months of suspending its operations in the country. Starting this December 9, European travelers will have one more option to fly to Costa Rica, connecting the city of London with the main Costa Rican air terminal.

The resumption of these operations is the product of the coordinated work between AERIS and the Costa Rican Tourism Institute (ICT), representing an opportunity for the country to accelerate the recovery of air traffic and enhance the image of Costa Rica as a safe destination.

The first British Airways flight this 2021 returned to the country after 7:00 pm this Thursday in a B772 aircraft with 300 passengers on board. While his return to the British capital will be around 9:00 pm with 160 travelers.

British Airways returns to Costa Rica just at the start of the high season. During December, the airline will have a frequency of three times a week, flying on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays.

To date, the Juan Santamaría International Airport connects with 25 destinations around the world, through the operation of 21 international airlines.
