Costa Rica’s Tourism Minister, Mauricio Ventura, said the airline’s decision is a result of the ICT efforts and aggressive strategy to strengthen the country’s position in Europe.

Ventura pointed out that in 2016 a total of 434,884 of the arrivals were from Europe, of which 353,326 were by air.

In the case of arrivals from France, Costa Rica saw the arrival of 53,743 visitors in 2016, up from 47,227 in 2015.

In addition to Air France, airlines with direct fights to Costa Rica include British Airways (London), Iberia (Madrid) and Condor (Frankfurt).

On May 9, Swiss Edelweiss will start offering direct flights between Zurich and San Jose. The flights will be on Tuesdays and Fridays.
