About San Jose International Airport and Airport Code

The San Jose International Airport code is SJO. The name Juan Santamaria is after a drummer boy who died helping Costa Rica prevent getting taken over by the United States in 1856. Make sure NOT to get SJO confused with San Jose, California whose airport code is SJC.

SJO Airport

In 2016, over 4.5 million passengers passed through San Jose International Airport. This airport is not huge and is easy to get around. In 2019, they opened 4 more gates.

Should You Fly Into Liberia or San Jose Airport?

San Jose and Liberia airport are hubs for different parts of the country. Find out which you should fly into before booking flights.

  • You should fly into San Jose Airport if you are going to San Jose, Heredia, Alajuela, Cartago, Jaco, Manuel Antonio, Puerto Viejo, Tortuguero, Uvita, Dominical, San Isidro de Perez Zeledon, Turrialba or Sarapiqui. Those destinations are closest from San Jose than Liberia.
  • If you are going to La Fortuna or Monteverde, both destinations are around 3 hours from Liberia and San Jose. However, due to the amount of traffic in San Jose, it could take much longer. So if you are able to, I would choose Liberia over San Jose if you’re going to La Fortuna/Monteverde right away.
  • San Jose Airport has more flights than Liberia and is generally cheaper. From Seattle, I found that flights into San Jose were about $100-200 USD cheaper than Liberia depending on the time of the year. However, there are some times of the year where prices are comparable since Liberia is getting more flights. Definitely check both airports.
