Round trip from Orlando, Fl to San Jose, CR is around $300 on Jet Blue, including tax. Flight time is about 2.5 hours. Should be similar for Houston. We fly Jet Blue because they are a little cheaper with surfboard fees. Some airlines might be a little less for just basic seats.

Houston is the hub for Continental Airlines, which has many daily flights to San Jose, which I have used many times. Go to cheaptickets.com (and others) and it is packed with costs to fly to San Jose. Cost of round-trip varies depending when you are going, but expect to pay between $600-750US Flight time is about 3hrs 30mins.

From Houston, your choices are pretty limited. Continental pretty much has a large share of that market, so their prices are pretty high, but not in the $600-750 range. I just did a serach on Kayak (www.kayak.com) for mid-July and mid-September. It came up as $535 (tax included) on Continental. Nonstop flight and it takes about 3:40. There are some Aeromexico flights for $450 but they have a 5-7 hour layover in Mexico City. No gracias! lol
