San José Airport  Now With Early Warning Lights

The Aeropuerto Santamaría showed off last night its new "early warning light" system that allows airplanes to make approaches even in bad weather.

The lack of the system has meant that for the last five years or more, fights had to be diverted to Panama, Liberia or Nicaragua in periods of heavy fog.

At 6:18pm, the ministra de Obras Públicas y Transportes, Karla González, flipped the switch.
