I was very happy to hear about Southwest serving the Liberia airport, but have been frustrated to find that I can't get there from San Diego, even though Southwest flies from SAN to HOU! I called customer service, and was told I would have to book 2 trips - one from SAN to HOU, then another from HOU to LIR. This wouldn't be all that bad, except my bags would have to be retrieved and rechecked between the flights.
I hope in the near future Southwest will figure out how to book international flights with a domestic leg included. I have a lot of Western area (LAS, PHX, SNA, SFO, LAX, SAN) friends who would happily drop Delta, American or United to fly to Costa Rica from their local airports! (If United can get me from San Diego to Liberia without rechecking bags, why can't Southwest?)
