All I Wanna Know Is: Who's Coming With Me???

In order to make planning and scheduling easier, we'll be posting the dates that each guest will be in Costa Rica. Again, if you don't speak Spanish or aren't comfortable traveling on your own, you might want to arrive and leave when others do. The chart below highlights the dates that each guest will be in-country (so the first group, for example, arrives on the 10th and leaves on the 31st). Click it to make it bigger.


We will update this chart as we receive more information, so please, don't forget to R.S.V.P. as soon as you purchase plane tickets by sending an email to leiamuzette@gmail.com. Remember to include the names of everyone in your group, as well as dates and times of arrival to and departure from San Jose. Or, you can just forward your itinerary.

Right now, round-trip tickets from LAX are in the $450-$550 range. Tickets from the East Coast should be cheaper. Prices could drop between now and August, or they could go up, especially if the price of oil continues rising.

If you're looking at cheap tickets on Spirit Airlines, factor in a charge of about $30 per bag. That's even for carry-on bags if they don't fit under the seat. Many airlines now charge for checked baggage, but as far as I know, most others don't charge for carry-ons.
