European tourists will have a new alternative to fly to Costa Rica,
November 15, 2007
The French airline Air Caraïbes will inaugurate in December two flights from Paris to Costa Rica, with a stop over in the Guadalupe Island and Panama, informed the Minister of Tourism, Carlos Benavides.
The flights will take place Tuesdays and Thursdays and will begin in the second week of December, specified Benavides. The Minister added that a French tour operator already acquired half of the available seats in the first flights. The service will be given in a new Embraer plane with a capacity of 100 passengers.
Benavides said that the flight is attractive because it does not stop over in the United States, which will increase the visits of Europeans to the country.
On her part, Marie Claire Roux, Sales Manager of the airline company, explained that the headquarters of the company are in Guadalupe, from where they have been operating for four years at a transatlantic level, as a result of the merging of several companies.
The connection will be from Paris to Guadalupe using an Airbus, and from the island an Embraer will depart with a stop over in Panama been its final destination the Juan Santamaría International Airport, located in the province of Alajuela.
