Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from LaGuardia Airport (LGA) to Juan Santamaria Intl. Airport last minute?
Booking your flight from LGA to SJO last minute could save you some dough if you luck out and find an amazing deal. However, fares don't typically get cheaper closer to the departure date. If you hold off, flights could also be booked out or the best seats gone (hello, middle seat!). If you'd rather err on the side of caution, book well in advance of the date you want to leave. Remember that some of the most awesome deals can be found up to a year in advance. If your favorite airline hasn't released its airfares yet, check back regularly as deals are updated on Expedia constantly.
