You will fly into the Liberia airport. The airport code is LIR.
Given changes in the airline industry and the global pandemic, we encourage you to book your flights directly with the airline. If you want to discuss your flights more or would like us to send you specific flight suggestions, please let me know.
Your reservation includes airport transfers but we cannot book your transfers without your flight details.
Make sure to book your flights for the same days as your hotel reservation. If you plan to extend your stay at a different resort, please let me know so I can book your transfers accordingly.
Here are some tips:
Once you have booked your flights, you can submit your flight details here.
Round trip transportation from the airport is included in the package. Once you have cleared customs and collected your bags, please proceed outside to the transfer area.
Your transfers are non-stop but may be shared with others.
• Cancellations before July 1: The deposit is non-refundable.
• Cancellations from July 1-August 25: 50% penalty for cancellations unless they have travel insurance.
• Cancellations after August 25: 100% penalty for cancellations unless you have travel insurance.
• No-show: 100% penalty regardless of travel insurance
Travel insurance will protect you from these cancellation fees if you need to cancel after your reservation is already in penalty.
Please note! Once the final payment due date has passed, penalties also apply to a reduction in nights, room category, or the number of people in your room.
I know that you may not be able to think of a reason that you would cancel your trip right now. It may be tempting to not include the cancellation insurance. Keep in mind that the cancellation policy above will not be waived for ANY reason unless you have this cancellation travel insurance. This includes if you get COVID or the flu right before the trip and cannot travel.
And because most medical insurance policies do not offer coverage outside the United States, we do not recommend traveling without insurance. Our trip insurance covers trip delay, trip cancellation, some medical coverage, lost luggage, and more.
The insurance also includes the following in-travel coverage. Click here.
Please note that these are the policies that are in place as of April 2023. These rules could change between now and your departure date. Any updates will be posted here. The cancellation policy will not be waived if any of these policies change.
Q. Is a COVID test required to enter Costa Rica?
A. At this time, there is no test required.
Q. Is vaccination required to enter Costa Rica?
A. No. Beginning April 1, 2022, establishments, activities, and events will be able to operate at 100% capacity without requiring a vaccination QR code. This could change.
Q. Am I required to take a test to return to the United States?
A. Effective June 12, 2022, travelers to the US are no longer required to test the day before flying home.
Q. Could the COVID travel rules change?
A. Definitely. It is impossible to know if the testing rules will be reinstated. While it is unlikely that vaccines will be required in the future, it is still a possibility. If that would be an issue, we strongly suggest that you get the cancellation insurance offered with your reservation.
Q. What happens if there is a travel ban?
A. In the event of a travel ban we would move the date of the wedding. We will make every effort to ensure that everyone in the group is able to keep the same room and number of nights at the current group rate.
Q. Does the travel insurance offered through the group cover us if we decide to cancel due to fear of COVID?
A. Yes. Our travel insurance is a “cancel for any reason” policy. The reason for canceling does not matter.
Q. If there is a travel ban, aren’t the hotels and airlines required to give us a full refund?
A. No, they are not required to offer a refund for anything that falls under force majeure such as government shutdowns, war, pandemics, or acts of God. We strongly encourage you to purchase trip insurance to protect yourself from a financial loss.
We offer a lot of great excursions in this destination! We recommend that you let us pre-book your excursions. By booking your excursions in advance you won’t have to worry about exchange rates, getting closed out of something that you really want to do, or getting stuck in a timeshare presentation when you thought you were going ziplining! Most of our excursions include transportation. Click here to see some options in the area.
Q. Do I have to book in the room block?
A. Yes, please book with Lindsay in the room block.
Q. Do I have to stay at Secrets Papagayo?
