Upala Airport — Upala, Costa Rica

Upala Airport, coded UPL, serves the town of Upala in northern Costa Rica, near the border with Nicaragua in the country's rural Alajuela province. The airfield accommodates small domestic aircraft, supporting agricultural communities and occasional tourism traffic in a region known for cattle ranching and proximity to the Río Frío wetlands. Given limited road infrastructure in parts of this borderland area, UPL provides a useful, if modest, transport option for local residents and visiting travelers. The airport remains a minor facility within Costa Rica's broader domestic aviation network, reflecting the agricultural character of the surrounding lowland countryside near the Nicaraguan frontier.
