December 3rd, 2015 (ICR News) Air Canada and Aeromexico are the latest to include Costa Rica’s mandatory departure tax in the cost of their airline tickets, saving travelers time when leaving the country.
Aeromexico began including the tax in their tickets on Wednesday, while Air Canada will follow suit beginning on Saturday.
The airlines join American Airlines, US Airways, Jet Blue, Avianca, Copa, Delta, United, and Air Panama in including the tax in their tickets.
The departure tax is currently $29 USD, though a bill presented last month seeks to increase the tax to $33 USD to fund youth sports programs.
