Modern, up-to-date apartmanets, great lay out, lots of light anf life, convieniently located, great dining places in the same block, one small market in the same mall area and bigger grocery store near by, fantastic service by every single staffer, Rebeca is a sweetheart, and Kellyana is on top of things. I go to CR every year once year and always go to a different place, but from now own, Apartamentos Cityzen will be my Tico-Home.

I had a late flight and chose this hotel because of the late check-in, and it's location on my drive north west of SJO...I didn't really look into the property much, but when I arrived, I was very impressed with the size of the accommodation, the grounds, and the staff. I really wish I would have read more about this place prior to planning my trip so I could have planned to stay another night.

How to book the cheapest flight to Playa Blanca?
With some of the most impressive flight deals around, you'll always jet for less with Orbitz. The following hints and tips will help you score cheap flights to Playa Blanca — and leave you with more cash to splash:

  • Depending on where you're leaving from, choose the 'Nearby airports' function (located under the departure and arrival options). Sometimes, other departure points work out cheaper.
  • If your plans aren't set in concrete, click on the 'Show flexible dates' link to view the flight deals for multiple departure dates. If you find a suitable cheaper fare, go with it.
  • Hit 'Show options' to filter your search results. You can choose your preferred airline and seating class here. Under 'Sort & Filter' to the left, you can even specify whether you'd like to fly in the morning, afternoon or evening.
  • The early bird catches the most rewarding savings, so book your tickets the moment you know your travel dates. The most affordable airfares get snapped up fast and prices generally rise as the departure date nears.
  • Think about combining your flights, hotels and car rentals into a package deal to save cash.
  • If you can, don't travel during the busy season. Airfares often surge during summer, school breaks and around other vacation times like Thanksgiving and Christmas.

What is the best time to book a flight to Playa Blanca?
Generally speaking, the cheapest time to book a seat is in January. This is closely followed by February and August. When looking for a cheap flight to Playa Blanca, be ready to book. Cheap deals appear quickly and don't stick around!
What day of the week is the cheapest to book a flight to Playa Blanca?
To pick up a great flight deal, book on a Tuesday, Wednesday or Saturday. These are generally the cheapest days to book flights to Playa Blanca.
What is the cheapest day of the week to fly to Playa Blanca?
Consider flying early in the week if you want to score cheap flights to Playa Blanca. Orbitz data from 2020 indicates Monday is normally the most inexpensive day to fly out, followed by Tuesday. Saturday was found to have the highest ticket fares. Presumably, this is because most travelers choose to start their escape when the working week is over.
What is the cheapest month to fly to Playa Blanca?
According to Orbitz data, you'll want to fly out in August. This is generally a great month to score cheap flights to Playa Blanca. Keep in mind that the most expensive time to get on a plane is in the month of June.

Simply click on "Filter by flexible change policies" and we'll show you fares more flexible than a lip balm left in the sun!
What do I need for the flight to Playa Blanca?
From onboard activities to travel basics like earplugs, there are several things a frequent flyer always takes with them. To ensure you're prepared for your adventure, have a read through this handy list:

  • Travel documents such as visas and some identification are a must. To avoid any delays at check-in, make certain your booking is under the same name, gender and birth date as listed on your current ID.
  • A well-packed carry-on bag is a must-have for any medium-haul flight. With a few hours or more up your sleeve, you'll need something to keep you occupied on your trip. We recommend a good book (or trashy magazine), and something to nibble on.
  • Together, air conditioning and high altitudes can create a cold environment. No matter what the season is, pack an extra layer to keep warm and cozy during the journey.

How do I get cheap first-class/business deals to Playa Blanca?
Smart travelers know how to find first or business-class airfares to Playa Blanca without the eye-watering price tag. Follow in their footsteps with these helpful tips:

  • Flexibility isn't just for your yoga class. Leave some room to move around your travel dates so you can pick up more affordable airfares when a huge sale drops.
  • Look for a low-cost carrier that offers seats in business class. They usually come with extra legroom and a glass of Champagne — but at a more affordable price.
  • Bid for an upgrade. Some airlines hold online auctions that let you offer a price for a seat at the front of the plane. You may also be able to upgrade with points earned through a flight loyalty program.
