Hi Darryl,
When it comes to major projects like this in Costa Rica, you just never know what’s going to happen or when.
There has been talk about an international airport in the Southern Zone for many years. They have the site and have done some preliminary studies. Construction has definitely not started and there is no start date set. They have run into issues because of environmental impact – the area has several national parks and is home to many threatened species. Also, I don’t believe it is fully funded yet.
We’ll see what happens. And if anything changes I’ll be sure to post the news.
