Costa Rica reopened its airspace on Wednesday after a power outage forced a nationwide closure for at least five hours, disrupting flights across the country.

The outage, which hit radar systems early on Wednesday, brought all air traffic to a halt and affected both domestic and international travel, Deputy Civil Aviation Director Luis Diego Saborio told Reuters.
