I did a google
From… http://www.amcostarica.com/041604.htm… President Abel Pacheco met with the junta last Jan. 22 when he announced that the government would construct a new international airport in the southern zone and that the planning for the new airport will begin immediately.
The new airport would generate a flow of more tourists to the area, which is considered to be economically depressed. The area includes the communities of Golfito, Palmar Sur, Drake,
Laurel, Carate and Puerto Jiménez. Right now Juan Santamaría International Airport in Alajuela is the principal arrival point for persons going to the south. From there they can travel by smaller planes or by highway.
