Southwest Airlines Adds a New International Destination

HIP HIP HOORAYYYYY!!  
Southwest Airlines is now planning on...well?  
Heading Southwest!

Costa Rica is the newest destination for the airline, determined based on surveys of their customers and their desired destinations.  Beginning March 7, direct flights from Baltimore Washington International (BWI) will be available daily to Juan Santamaria International (SJO) which is located just outside of the Costa Rican capitol, San Jose.

Still a good deal going international?  You bet!  Flights are going to be priced around $130 each way...and the airline hopes to keep its tickets 30-40% lower than its competitors as they do on domestic flights.

Need more variety?  Texas can look forward to direct flights starting out of Houston Hobby Airport (HOU) sometime this coming fall.

If Costa Rica isn't quite your deal, maybe you'll find Southwest's existing international Carribbean destinations of interest (Aruba, Jamaica, Dominican Republic and Mexico) and if those aren't enough with the addition of Costa Rica, Belize is next on the list.

Happy travels to the Southwest!
