A private charter from San José to Golfito (GLF) is $1,430 for the whole aircraft, which seats up to 5–12 passengers. Split between five travellers that’s about $286 each — the same as a scheduled Sansa fare, and sometimes less.
About 55 minutes in the air, direct. Compared with the 6 hour drive it saves most of a travel day, and you depart from a private terminal at Juan Santamaría International Airport (SJO) minutes before takeoff.
Our aircraft — typically a Cessna 208B Grand Caravan — carry up to 12 passengers. You charter the whole plane and split the cost across your group, so the more seats you fill, the lower the price per person.
Often, yes. Because you book the entire aircraft and divide the fare, the per-seat price (about $286) matches or beats a Sansa ticket. Scheduled airlines like Sansa also enforce strict baggage weight limits and add hidden fees, while with AeroRide you fly direct, on your own schedule, in a private plane with no surprise costs.
