Winnipeg to Costa Rica - $403 (CB) to $495 CAD roundtrip including taxes [Nonstop Flights]
7
July
WestJet has dropped the price of their flights from Winnipeg to Liberia, Costa Rica down to between $403 and $495 CAD roundtrip including taxes.
The flights are nonstop both ways, and available for two of the most desirable months to be in Costa Rica.
WestJet just added these flights to their schedule yesterday, and they are the only nonstop flights from Winnipeg to Costa Rica. Or Central America.
In fact, someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe these are the first nonstop flights from Winnipeg to Central America since Air Transat's flights to Panama back in 2012?
I consider $403 roundtrip to be WestJet's clickbait (CB) price because it doesn't include checked luggage or carry-on. Not exactly a realistic way to travel.
$495 roundtrip is the more realistic price because at least it includes checked luggage.
However, those with the WestJet World Elite credit card can take advantage of the clickbait price as the card gives you free checked luggage.
UPDATE @ 1:50 PM CDT: It looks like all dates have sold out of the cheapest prices. I will update this post if any more cheap ones become available.
