This number represents a 13% increase compared to the record of the same period last year because 150,000 passengers in the first three months of the 2008 arrived the Daniel Oduber International Airport.
 Six of ten passengers that passed through this terminal were men and half of the tourists were between 30 and 49. Forty-eight percent had already been to Costa Rica before. The majority live in the United States and Canada.
A survey by the Guanacaste Chamber of Tourism showed that at least half of the entrants came from a high socioeconomic background. In addition, it was shown that the most visited sites in the province are Playa Flamingo, Playas del Coco, and Playa Tamarindo.
According to specialists in the tourism sector, this increase means that Guanacaste has become the primary tourist market in the country as well as one of the main sources of employment.
