Frontier Airlines Announces New Costa Rica Route
Posted on: August 31st, 2010 by Charlie Mills
It now appears that Frontier Airlines is the first of many airlines that will be launching new routes to Costa Rica. Apparently the carrier is planning on running this as a seasonal service, which will run as of February 13 next year and will service Liberia, Costa Rica.
For those that do not know, Liberia is about four hours northwest of the capital, San Jose, when traveling by bus. It is one of the major jumping off points for beach resorts on the West Cost. Frontier Airlines, which is a unit of Republic Airways Holdings, said that it will operate weekly nonstop flights to and from its hub at Denver International Airport.
As of right now the airline already runs flights to San Jose. After this information was released, Republic Airways saw its shares rise 2 cents to $7.01 in morning trading at the start of this week.
So why are airlines now starting to add more routes to Costa Rica? Why are experts suggesting that more airlines will now start looking into offering Cost Rica routes? A lot of this has to do with the fact that the United States government is starting to relax travel restrictions to Costa Rica. This could mean that routes to the country could now be profitable for airlines to fly.
However, it is not yet know just how popular these flights will be. Most experts assume that they will be pretty popular, though. Apparently people have been asking airlines for a long time to add these kinds of flights and asking the government to relax its travel restrictions.

Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.
