Flight Info and Transportation Options

We've been following flights to Costa Rica and finally bought our tickets this morning! Priceline.com seems to offer the best deals. I think they are alloted a couple really cheap tickets each day to help attract people to the website, so check it out in the morning.

Here's our departing flight information:

Frontier Airlines
Flight 1048 departs Seattle on August 6, at 6:59PM
There's a quick layover in Denver, Colorado
Flight 86 departs Denver at 12:15AM and arrives in San Jose, Costa Rica on August 7, at 5:30AM

Jonathan and I are going to stay an extra week to tour around the country. The villa rentals are August 7-14, so plan your return flight accordingly. Remember, Manual Antonio is a 3.5 hour drive or a 25 minute flight from San jose.

Here are your options for getting from San Jose to Manuel Antonio:

Bus: $5 and 3.5 hours
Taxi: $120 and 3.5 hours
Rental car: go to paylesscar.com/countries/CostaRica
Puddle-hopper plane to nearby Quepos: go to flysansa.com; Book early because these will fill up: $60 and 25 minutes, first flight is at 8AM

From Quepos to our villas in Manual Antonio it's only 10 more minutes, so you can rent a car (same company as above), take a taxi, or we'll pick you up! http://www.vivalasvillas.com/drive.htm
