Are there sterile transfer areas in Juan Santamaria airport?

Accepted answer
According to several threads posted by past users of the airport, they all indicate that they did have to go through customs and that there was not an air side transfer option. So you will have to go through immigration, then baggage collection, then back through security to check in again.
By looking at the site map on the official airport website it also suggests that there is no option other than to go through customs once you have arrived, as there is no area to go anywhere else.
Previous passengers have said to leave a minimum of 45 minutes to get through security/customs to get out of the airport, and the same to check back in depending on if you have luggage etc, and how long before your next flight check in closes. But as you are self transfering, if your first flight is late causing you to miss the second one, it will be your responsibility to pay to get to your final destination, so leaving some buffer time is better safe than sorry.
