Do I need a passport and passport card to travel to Costa Rica or can I travel there with just a passport?
I am trying to apply for a passport to go to Costa Rica, but when I read over the application it states that I need a passport card if I am traveling outside the U.S.A.. Now my boyfriend and his mother travel to Costa Rica a and the two of them just have passports. I mean when I askedhim the other day he didn't even know what a passport card was.
I tried contacting the post office because that's were you go to get them but no one will answer the phone, and I don't want to wait in line to just ask one question. So does anyone know if I need a both passports or just the one passport.
Thanks for your time.

All you need is the passport (book). The passport card cannot be used for any international flights. It is offered as an additional option to those who frequently cross the land border to Canada or Mexico or take cruises to the Caribbean.

Passport only. The passport card is only for cruise ships and certain land crossings. All international air travel requires a passport only.
And MAKE SURE YOU PRINT AND BRING WITH YOU YOUR RETURN ITINERARY. I've been stuck at immigration because I didn't have it printed... they denied me entry and I had to go back to gate to get airline to print it... big hassle and waste of time.
