Hi everyone,
I noticed that the current passenger data for several Costa Rican regional airports in the game/database appears to be outdated as I have recently set up a regional airline after having visited, I think most values still reflect numbers from around 2013–2014. However, recent reports from SJO Airport’s 2024 Report updated passenger traffic figures that would better represent today’s operations.

DATA IS ON PAGE 15
Below is a summary of the most recent passenger numbers (2024) for Costa Rican regional airports, based on official and industry sources:
| Airport | Code | 2024 Passengers | 2023 Passengers | Change (%) | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cobano | ACO | 63,378 | 11,684 | +442.4% | SJO Report 2024 |
| Puerto Jiménez | PJM | 35,110 | 34,198 | +2.7% | same as above |
| Quepos / La Managua | XQP | 30,074 | 26,888 | +11.8% | same as above |
| Tamarindo | TNO | 24,682 | 23,432 | +5.3% | same as above |
| Nosara | NOB | 24,586 | 16,274 | +51.1% | same as above |
| Golfito | GLF | 17,220 | 16,416 | +4.9% | same as above |
| Bahía Drake | DRK | 13,776 | 13,256 | +3.9% | same as above |
| Limón | LIO | 12,008 | 12,190 | −1.5% | same as above |
| Tortuguero | TTQ | 8,166 | 7,268 | +12.4% | same as above |
For reference, the two main international airports also show significant growth:
| Airport | Code | 2024/2023 Passenger Traffic | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Juan Santamaría Intl (San José) | SJO | 5,682,476 (2023) | CRHoy.com |
| Daniel Oduber Quirós Intl (Liberia) | LIR | 1,910,354 (2024) | Aviacionline.com |
Given these updates, it would be great if the airport passenger statistics could be revised to reflect this current data.
Thanks in advance for looking into this!
