The main entry point is Juan Santamaría International Airport (SJO), 17 km northwest of central San José in Alajuela. Bus services and taxis connect the airport to the city centre; the journey takes 30–45 minutes depending on traffic. Official red-and-yellow taxis from the designated rank charge a fixed rate. For reaching other parts of Costa Rica from San José, two domestic airlines (Sansa and Green Airways) offer scheduled propeller-plane flights to around 15 destinations; the baggage allowance is typically 25 pounds per person. Charter helicopter services are also available. Long-distance buses to all parts of Costa Rica depart from several terminal areas near the Coca-Cola district.
