Universal Aviation Costa Rica has added a 10,000sq ft (929sq m) aircraft hangar for general aviation use at Juan Santamaria International Airport (MROC\/SJO), the only hangar currently available for GA traffic at the airport.<\/p>\n
The hangar was secured through a competitive process conducted by airport operator AERIS and can accommodate a midsize business aircraft alongside a smaller aircraft, depending on configuration. It includes adjacent office space and is available for transient, overnight, weekend and longer-term stays.<\/p>\n
\u201cSince opening Costa Rica\u2019s first GAT in San Jose, we\u2019ve continued working closely with AERIS, local authorities and our partners to strengthen the infrastructure and support available to business aviation,\u201d said Adolfo Aragon, CEO of Universal Aviation. \u201cAdding hangar capability is another step forward and means we can now offer operators something unique at MROC, access to both the country\u2019s first and only GAT and hangar space at the same airport.\u201d<\/p>\n
GAT SJO opened in December 2019 as Costa Rica\u2019s first dedicated general aviation terminal for international business aviation passengers and crews. Universal Aviation Costa Rica provides IS-BAH Stage 2 accredited ground support at the airport, including ground handling, CIQ coordination, flight planning, permit support, ground transportation and catering coordination.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Universal Aviation Costa Rica has added a 10,000sq ft (929sq m) aircraft hangar for general aviation use at…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":465510,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[88,90,89],"class_list":["post-465509","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-jose","tag-san-jose","tag-san-jose-headlines","tag-san-jose-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/465509","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=465509"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/465509\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/465510"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=465509"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=465509"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=465509"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
