Backpacking Trip to Costa Rica and Nicaragua
Planning a short backpacking trip to Central America for January? Costa Rica and Nicaragua are fantastic destinations filled with natural beauty, rich culture, and adventure. When it comes to finding cheaper airports to fly in and out of from Vancouver, here are a few tips:
Airports in Costa Rica
The main international airport in Costa Rica is Juan Santamaría International Airport (SJO) in San José. While it's the most convenient option, flights to SJO can be pricier, especially during peak travel seasons. Consider these alternatives:
- Daniel Oduber Quirós International Airport (LIR) in Liberia, Guanacaste: This airport is closer to popular beach destinations like Tamarindo and Playa del Coco. Flights to LIR can be cheaper than SJO, and you'll save on transportation costs by starting your trip closer to the beaches.
- Tobías Bolaños International Airport (SYQ) in San José: This smaller airport is also located in San José and can sometimes offer lower fares than SJO, especially for budget airlines.
Airports in Nicaragua
The primary international airport in Nicaragua is Augusto C. Sandino International Airport (MGA) in Managua. However, there are a few other options to consider:
- Montelimar International Airport (MGA) in Managua: This is the main airport for international flights to Nicaragua, but flights can be expensive.
- Aeropuerto Internacional de Liberia (LIR) in Liberia, Costa Rica: If you plan to visit both countries, you can fly into LIR and cross the border into Nicaragua by land. This can be a more affordable option than flying directly into Managua.
Additionally, consider flying into airports in neighboring countries like San Salvador, El Salvador, or Panama City, Panama, and then taking a bus or private transfer into Costa Rica or Nicaragua. This can sometimes be a more cost-effective option, albeit with longer travel times.
Regardless of your chosen airports, be sure to compare prices across different airlines and dates to find the best deals. Happy travels!
