Alaska Airlines launching LA-Costa Rica routes
Alaska Airlines will begin flying from Los Angeles to Costa Rica’s two main airports beginning this fall.
Flights will operate four times a week from LA to both San José and Liberia.
San Jose flights take off on October 31 with Liberia flights starting the following day.
This is a new departure in every sense for Alaska which currently only serves Canada and Mexico beyond US borders.
At the same time Alaska also announced new daily flights from LA to Baltimore starting September 9.
"Our new Costa Rica flights are well timed for Los Angeles travelers and offer convenient roundtrip connections for our Anchorage and Seattle customers, while our new Baltimore service provides passengers greater access to the nation’s capital, complementing our daily nonstop service to Reagan National Airport," said John Kirby, Alaska’s vice president of capacity planning.
