Atirro airstrip near Turrialba is a short runway in the farming country of Costa Rica's Caribbean slope, historically used for agricultural aviation and light aircraft. It has no scheduled traffic, no cargo handling and no customs, so it carries no weight in air freight planning. Exports from the region — coffee and ornamental plants among them — move through San José Juan Santamaría (SJO), some 80 road kilometres west, where perishables handling and customs clearance are available.
