Information per Aviacioncr.net’s Facebook page. Iberia has scheduled their A346 to operate the route MAD-SJO from December 13th to December 17th and will use their A350-900 from December 18th 2019 until March 28th 2020. Awesome news, to have the “raccoon” flying to SJO.

Interesting to see the movements AA and B6 just did with their new routes from SJO to JFK, taking into consideration that VOC was/is planning to start flights from SJO to JFK and other routes but for the time is being held by the category downgrade of Costa Rica by the FAA.
Starting on December 18th and apparently lasting trough the high season, Air Transat is adding another route to Costa Rica. Flying YVR-SJO-LIR, twice a week, using their new A321neo LR. Vancouver – San Jose (Costa Rica) – Liberia – Vancouver eff 18DEC19 2 weekly A321neo LR TS796 YVR0630 – 1545SJO 32...
Jump to postIn SJO, when they have to use Runway 07 (east departure) because of the terrain and the need for more rate of climb upon departure I’ve seen them making stops either at PTY or CUR. This new route would actually help them in this matter since SJO sets at 3021ft of elevation while LIR’s only at 269ft....

Located just a bit to the west of the main terminal will now serve as base for: SANSA, Aerobell, Carmonair (Costa Rica Green Airways) et...

Nice to see LIR growing on connectivity, this flight adds up to the recently announced MEX-LIR by AMX, I hope the streak continues, LIR could use ...
Jump to postHonestly, I wouldn't mind my club, Liga Deportiva Alajuelense (yes, I AM a liguista), to call CM one of its sponsors, but I believe they currently have Volaris as one of its sponsors. Unfortunately Volaris Costa Rica is no longer an sponsor for L.D.A, they cancelled their commercial agreement just ...

Jump to postSo tonight was the inaugural nonstop AMS-SJO on KL. My question is: Does that also make it the inaugural 787-9 flight to SJO ever? I know Thomson is using the 787-8 to LIR, but I don't believe I've seen any -9 at all. Yes indeed, it's the first time a -9 has come to SJO, previously we had the visit...
