San Jose: Authorities in Costa Rica temporarily closed the airport in the capital city San Jose on Thursday after the eruption of the Turrialba volcano, the company which operates the airport said.
"The airport will be closed until midnight (0600 GMT)," a spokeswoman for Aeris, which operates the airport, said, adding that 18 flights have been canceled so far.
Families living near the volcano were evacuated in March after the biggest eruption in two decades. That event also forced the airport to close, affecting more than a hundred flights.
