Do you have a trip scheduled, klakhav? You mentioned you know somebody in Costa Rica.

Thanks, Man. I did have a scheduled visit (dentist) had to postpone it indefinitely. I do watch TeleTico and other TV stations and it economic doom and gloom. The world is opening up but the government in Costa Rica is worried about Nicaragua and Panama borders.
A gift shop owner stated(on Teletica) that they made 10K Colones in a day (about $20) but in the past they were making 200K Colones in a day ($400). The rich in CR is not effected by closed borders but the average Tico/Tica is. The government of Costa Rica is decimating its economy for years.
They need to open the airports now and they may start seeing traffic in the late June/July time frame.
Thanks for your post.
