The Costa Rican Minister of Tourism, Allan Flores, joined JetBlue officials in making this announcement earlier today in a press conference at the Costa Rican Tourism Board (ICT) in San Jose.

Thanks to this we’re proud today to add the third JetBlue route in Costa Rica.”

“We begin the new year with this important piece of news which reiterates our clear airline attraction policy, which we’ve pushed hard, focusing our efforts in getting closer to the main tourism outbound markets. This new offer on JetBlue’s behalf materializes the negotiations done to Costa Rica’s benefit,” added Tourism Minister Allan Flores.

thats good news for us SoFla guys. Competition is good.
Riding on Spirit feels like boarding at a greyhound bus station. Through the years many airlines have flown the route, Iberia, American, and my all time favorite Martinair

Never flew Iberia but Martinair was great. Both stopped servicing MIA/SJO when the Transit Without Visa program was discontinued which meant that their European passengers who were traveling to SJO had to get a U.S. tourist visa even though they were not leaving the Miami airport.

yee freaking haw. :D :D
base price of $258 is about even with Spirits best prices when you add the spirit bag fee and charges for drinks/snacks and you don't need a shoehorn to fit into your seat.
