Frequently asked questions

How to book the cheapest flight to San José?
If you want to have some extra spending money on your San José holiday, then listen up! As any seasoned traveller knows, don't book at the very last minute. Fares are generally more expensive close to the departure date. Also, shop around and compare your options. If your destination has more than one airport, you may be able to nab a fantastic deal by flying into a smaller terminal. And finally, remember that it's first in, best dressed. Familiarise yourself with airfare costs and have your credit card ready to secure your ticket as soon as you see an unbeatable bargain. The best deals never last long.
Do you have any tips for my flight to San José?
If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a worry-free start to your holiday in San José. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right gear. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Next, find a spot in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
  • Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to San José?
The secret is to be well organised before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to San José in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

  • Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
  • Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • There's a chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
