A popular Florida airport just made history! Breeze Airways just added a nonstop flight between Tampa International Airport and San Jose, Costa Rica. This is the first flight connecting from Tampa to Costa Rica in over 25 years.

Breeze will soon be the only route offering direct flights from Tampa to San Jose. Service to San Jose begins on October 3rd with routes on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

Returning service to San Jose has been a long-time goal of the Tampa airport. The Costa Rican capital city offers many tourist destinations, including museums, national parks, and shopping centers. The move will also benefit Florida businesses, since Costa Rica is the state of Florida’s ninth-largest trade partner. In addition, many Tampa Bay area families have ties to Costa Rica; 3,000 Costa Rican-born residents have immigrated to Tampa as of the 2020 U.S. Census.

In addition to their historic San Jose route, Breeze Airways is launching a new direct flight to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, out of the Tampa International Airport. Flights to Punta Cana start on July 2nd with operations on Thursdays and Sundays. This will connect fliers with the beauty of the Dominican Republic, known for its white beaches and clear waters.

“It’s an exciting day for Tampa International Airport as we celebrate not one, but two new international nonstop routes,” TPA CEO Michael Stephens said. “With new service to San Jose, Costa Rica — our first time offering this destination from TPA in more than 25 years — and Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, we’re enhancing Tampa Bay’s access to two sought-after travel spots. We’re thrilled that Breeze is adding these routes that give our travelers even more ways to experience the beauty and culture of Latin America and the Caribbean.”

“This announcement doubles the number of international destinations Breeze serves from Tampa, making it easy for our guests to visit great places across Central America and the Caribbean,” said David Neeleman, founder and CEO of Breeze Airways. “With Breeze’s premium product offering and affordable fares, we know our guests in Tampa will love this new and convenient international service.”
