    Planning on visiting Machu Picchu? Luckily for travelers with flights to Cusco, the airport is just a short taxi or shuttle ride away from Poroy.

Your guide to booking Cusco flights

From booking to airport arrival, find tips to help you plan your flight with more confidence.
  • For the best chance at a low fare to Cusco, aim to book around 19 weeks before you fly. That window historically saves about 25% versus last-minute pricing based on KAYAK booking data over the last 12 months.
  • For flights to Cusco, recent KAYAK data shows that stronger deals tend to land around $799 round-trip. If you see a fare below that threshold, it's a strong deal – book before the price climbs back up.
  • If you can choose when to go, time your trip to Cusco around January. Round-trip fares historically average $901 that month – typically the cheapest month to travel based on the last 12 months.
  • Before you book:

    • Check the route's typical price range so you can spot a deal.
    • Confirm baggage fees and seat-selection costs on budget carriers.
    • Verify whether you need any travel documents beyond ID.
    • Pick a departure airport, since your nearest may not be the cheapest origin.
  • Shift your departure to evening to save up to $23 per round-trip. Evening flights to Cusco average $1,033 compared to $1,056 for afternoon flights. See the time-of-day chart above for the full breakdown.
  • Once you arrive in Cusco, a few great places to start are Cusco City Centre, Plaza de Armas and Cusco Craft Center. These are popular with first-time visitors and can give you a good feel for the area.
  • Looking for flights to Cusco? If so, you will be flying into Alejandro Velasco Astete International Airport (CUZ), also known as Cusco Airport. It is the second busiest airport in Peru and the only international airport serving Cusco.
  • If you are looking to grab a bite to eat after landing in Cusco, why not check out some of the various restaurant options available in Cusco Airport?

  • For a medical check-up while on the airport premises, you will be happy to hear that there is a health center just before the baggage conveyor belt on the first floor.
