JetBlue Launches New Flights to Costa Rica's Daniel Oduber Quiros International Airport in Liberia

JetBlue Airways announced it will begin four weekly non-stop flights to Liberia, in Costa Rica's rich Guanacaste region, from its home base at New York's JFK Airport. To celebrate, the airline is also offering an inaugural fare of only $119 if booked by December 1, 2011 for travel through February 15, 2012.

Liberia, on Costa Rica's Pacific Coast, will be the airline's second destination in the country. JetBlue has served Juan Santamaria International Airport in the capital, San Jose, with nonstop service from Orlando, since 2009.

Named after the national tree of Costa Rica, Guanacaste is one of the country's most popular vacation and ecotourism destinations thanks to nearly a dozen well-known biological reserves, national parks and wildlife refuges. Known as a haven for nature lovers and outdoor adventurers alike, stunning Pacific coastlines are plentiful in this northwestern province, as are the seemingly endless hours of summer sunlight.

JetBlue five-hour flights between New York and Liberia will be operated with the airline's fleet of Airbus A320 aircraft, featuring convenient, assigned seating; a first-checked bag free (c); complimentary and unlimited name brand snacks and drinks; comfy leather seats; more legroom than any other carrier in coach (d); and its award-winning customer service.
