  • Are there nonstop flights to Peru?

    There are several routes from the United States to destinations in Peru, but the only nonstop flights from cities in the US fly to Lima. Nonstop flights to Lima are available from several major international air hubs in the US, including Miami, New York, Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, Atlanta and Dallas.

  • I want to visit the Sacred Valley in Peru, what city should I fly to?

    The Sacred Valley is another popular tourist destination in Peru, and the way there is actually much the same as the route to Macchu Picchu. To visit the Sacred Valley, you should either fly directly into Cusco or fly into Lima and take the bus to Cusco. After you arrive in Cusco, there are buses and trains that can take you to the Sacred Valley.

  • Where should I fly to in Peru for the best access to the coast?

    Peru is bordered entirely by the ocean on the west coast, and there are several beach destinations in the country popular with both foreign and domestic travelers. Lima not only hosts most of the international air traffic heading into Peru, but it is also located centrally on the coast, giving you great access to both northern and southern coastal Peru.

  • Are there any hotels at or near LIM?

    If you are exhausted after your red-eye flight to Jorge Chavez International Airport (LIM) and do not wish to head into the downtown area, you can book a room at Costa del Sol Wyndham Lima Aeropuerto. The airport hotel is nestled at the terminal exit. The establishment's night and day rooms feature noise-canceling panels plus complimentary breakfast. Alternatively, the Holiday Inn Lima Airport is roughly eight minutes away by foot.

  • What are the car rental options at LIM?

    Public transportation can be frustrating and exhausting, particularly for visitors with baggage. If you want to discover the Peruvian city without hassle, motor away on a car rental from Jorge Chavez Airport right after you arrive. The car rental kiosks are stationed at the arrivals area, and the car rental garage is adjacent to the terminal. If the car rental counters are not staffed upon arriving, proceed to the garage, where an assistant will attend to you.

  • What are the stopover airports for flights to Alejandro Astete Velasco Airport (CUZ)?

    Passengers with a thirst for adventure should choose flights to Cusco with layovers. Note that stopovers vary based on your origin airport and airline choice. If you depart from New York (JFK) via United Airlines, you will break at George Bush Airport (IAH) in Texas, while LATAM Airlines users stop at Jorge Chavez International Airport (LIM). Passengers departing Los Angeles (LAX) with JetBlue have a stopover at Miami (MIA), while those using Aeromexico Airlines have layovers at LIM and Mexico City (MEX).

  • Does CUZ offer any concierge services?

    Consider scheduling butler services with Airssist if you want first-class airport services. This concierge service will have a dedicated personal assistant ready for you right after you depart your Cusco plane. To make your airport navigation easier, your airport concierge will aid you with fast-track clearances at arrivals, do your personal shopping, purchase your lounge pass, organize your transit, and haul your luggage.

Your guide to booking flights to Peru

Get tips on when to book, when to fly and what to know before your trip.
  • If you can plan ahead, the sweet spot for booking your flight is 5 weeks before your trip. KAYAK data shows fares in this window are around 8% lower than last-minute bookings (made within 2 weeks of departure). Not ready to commit? Set a Price Alert and we'll let you know when prices change.
  • If your dates are flexible, February usually has the best deals, while December tends to be the priciest. The best-time-to-travel chart on this page shows how prices move across the year.
  • Thursday is usually the cheapest day to fly, about 8% cheaper than Saturday, the priciest day. If your dates are flexible, that's an easy way to save. If not, try nearby airports or a layover instead.
  • If arriving on time matters more than price, consider flying with one of the most punctual airlines flying to Peru: LATAM Airlines, Sky Airlines Peru, Sky Airline, American Airlines or Delta.
  • If you're looking to save, Lima J Chavez Intl (LIM) has had the lowest fares over the past 12 months. Just remember to factor in the cost of getting to your final destination.
  • Lima is the most popular destination in Peru. Start your trip here and then check out these other places KAYAK travelers love: Cusco, Punta Sal and Paracas.
  • Consider a layover to Peru, it can cost less than flying nonstop. Fort Lauderdale (FLL) is typically the cheapest place to connect.
  • As you’re booking your flight to Peru, you’ll have a handful of different destinations to choose from. The capital city of Lima sees most of the international flight traffic from the US, but there are many available flights also serving destinations like Cusco, Iquitos, Juliaca and a handful of others.
  • The most common way to get to Macchu Picchu is to fly to Cusco, then take a train from a nearby village to Aguas Calientes and either trek or catch a shuttle bus to Macchu Picchu.
  • US Dollars are accepted in some of the popular tourist areas in Peru, but you will need the local currency of Soles for smaller businesses and areas outside of large cities like Lima. There are ATMs that accept US bank cards in Peru’s larger cities, where you can obtain Soles for your stay.
  • If you’re heading to Macchu Picchu after spending some time in Lima, the most popular route is by bus. The buses have several stops along the way and enable tourists to hop on and hop off to see a good portion of central Peru in a short amount of time.
  • Aside from the bus to Lima to Cusco, there are few long-distance buses in Peru. There are a handful of destinations that are not accessible by bus or cars altogether. Regional flights can be affordable and are the most convenient way to get around the country.
  • Visitors yearning for luxury while in Alejandro Astete Velasco Airport (CUZ) should visit one of the airport's two lounges. Kuntur VIP Lounge and VIP Lounge Cusco provide many of the same lounge facilities, including complimentary meals and drinks, television, and magazines. Kuntur VIP Lounge is before security, while the VIP Lounge Cusco is located inside the security area.
  • When booking a flight to Peru, be sure to reserve flights landing close to your destination. Globetrotters heading to Lima are likely to book flights to Jorge Chavez Airport (LIM); those heading to Cusco flights to Alejandro Astete Velasco Airport (CUZ), while those heading to Arequipa should use Rodriguez Ballon International Airport (AQP).
  • The airport in Arequipa features a two-story terminal. LATAM Airlines’ information kiosk and check-in desks 1 to 9 are on the right-hand side, ground floor. The arrivals hall, food and drink options, and shops are on the left. Boarding gates 1-4 are on the terminal's first floor.
  • The PromPeru desk on the landside of CUZ offers recommendations to those who would like to explore Cusco so they can make the most out of their visits. These helpful professionals can address any inquiries you have regarding Cusco or Peru in general.
  • Pamper yourself with a massage after an exhausting flight to the airport in Lima. Jorge Chavez Airport hosts a spa on the first floor.

Very crowded and the economy seats were the smallest and with the least legroom I have ever experienced. Cabin staff were excellent although the food service was chaotic as they were being each person their food individually instead of from the wagon.

Very crowded and the economy seats were the smallest and with the least legroom I have ever experienced. Cabin staff were excellent although the food service was chaotic as they were being each person their food individually instead of from the wagon.

Delta is the best. It was all very easy and on time.

The cabin and bathroom experience was poor as the cabin and bathroom were dirty and showed signs of an older plane that had not been updated for Customer’s, comfort and health. There was gum on my seat when I arrived and dirt spots around the fan and light controls. The flight was almost entirely full, so there was no way I could be moved from my seat. Th bathroom had the peeling paint.

Wifi worked inconsistently; outlet to charge computer did not work.

Gate agent in LAS named Juliett should win an award for excellent customer service.

Gate agent and flight attendants were efficient, but more stern than warm.

The only issue is that the plane was HOT. This was not the case on my first flight so not sure why, but thankfully I had a portable fan with me. Everything else was great!

13 hour delay stuck in Detroit and missed a day of meetings. It was terrible

My flight was so delayed I would’ve missed my connection and had to cancel my trip

This was a Latam operated flight. Seats seemed a bit narrow in business class. Older aircraft.

Flight delayed, luggage delayed. I am still waiting for my luggage after 2 days arrival of Lima.

It is not a good experience with Copa Airlines: flight delay, luggage delay, etc.

We where skipped for this flight will not head to Panama until tonight..

There should be a warning regarding the quality of the aircraft on the website as we reserve the tickets. There was no TV or any type of screen onboard. The wifi they offer is good for nothing. Traveling 9 hours straight with kids and no type of entetainment was horrible. I wish I had been informed prior so I could buy a ticket with another airline. The food was a joke too. A very tiny portion per passenger. They also charged $100 per checked bag. With United I used to pay $60. So, fair to say that I wont be flying Copa anymore. Their aircraft was super old, outdated, no entertainment, with nearly no onboard food.

Very strict carry on rules meant most of the plane had to gate check their luggage. As is often the case had things that were broken because of this, but I appreciated not being charged to gate check. Otherwise good flight and great crew once on the plane

I liked the meatloaf the chicken was awful but the plane was on time and got there and the staff was nice.

Boarding was quick & efficient; they gave boarding groups due priority; staff & air crew were very cordial and helpful, pleasant flight.

Very happy with my flight. I would definitely recommend it.

Did upgrade, travel in business it was great (more room I could sleep)

Placed us in the last rear row of the plane so could not recline seats because of the rear wall, and also made it more of a tight space when the passenger in front reclined their seat. While understand seat assignments, every passenger should be afforded a reclining seat. The odor control scent from the restrooms was overwhelming strong. My wife and I could not deal with it, and she suffered a terrible headache as a result. I kept getting hit by the crew since I was on the ilse seat. No apologies, nothing. They made me feel like I was supposed to take the beating for a 3 hr flight.

Putting someone with a window seat in the last boarding group? Indiocy typical of Latam.

4 hour delay. So our flight schedule mass up. Your worker told me you should rebooking myself. I was very angry. Latam Airline always get the money more through any way. But They have no concern passenger.

Latam may be the worst airline in the world, far worse than even the lowest of low cost airlines in the USA. I wasted hours trying to PAY THEM TO CHECK A BAG! Then they misled me at the terminal, sent me through the wrong security line, the list goes on and on... Just absolutely terrible in every way. Avoid at all costs.

I was in the last row and they sent me to check in my luggage last minute after boarding. I had to go through the crowd.

Although the flight is goof and the crew is good, the way the airline charges you for every service is ridiculous.

Only complaint is that the entertainment system wasn’t working on our seats and some others.

Routine and on time flight with pleasant stewards and decent food. Nice experience!

You delayed my trip three days for no reason other than your lack of preparedness, did not offer any compensation, including food or a bed. I couldn’t trust you so I moved up my return flight and lost another day at the end of my trip to hopefully make sure I make my next flight. I will never fly LATAM again. You have the worse accountability and reliability and clearly do not care that your clients have lives and what it cost to fly to another country.

No air in the middle rows. Had a hard time breathing. Was dying of heat.

It was a good experience, the flight was a little too long & the food was ok

The crew in the Vegas airport clearly was having a bad day … they moved on and the crew that checked us in for boarding was great, as was the flight crew. I did get the wheel of my carry on stuck in the overhead bin. Amazing team effort to include the flight attendants, the pilot, and another pilot who was on the flight as a passenger. Finally got it unstuck ✅

Staff are polite,and even offer us to tag our baggages upon seeing us from the entry

Internet is much improved, which is very important to me a s a business traveler. The off boarding of the plane was fantastic. Very quick and very orderly. We had to check our carry-ons before we got on the plane and they were retrieved and available to us very quickly. We left on time and arrived early. All very good things

My seat was defective. The suppor was broken under the cushion so I road on metal for 4 hours

There was an issue with engine, flight delayed for several hours, lost a connection

I always looks forward to the Biscoff cookies and they weren’t offered….

I had to buy another ticket and you haven't reimburse me for it.

I was truly shocked at how poor this flight went. The crew was not friendly during the checking process. The asked for people to gate check and were rude about it. They didn't handle my luggage with care. When I got to my seat I noticed a large section of the ceiling vent area was, no joke, TAPED TOGETHER WITH CLEAR PACKING TAPE! To add insult to injury, the back rest button was disabled on my seat and all the seats I could see. The wifi, never connected for me, despite troubleshooting it for a while. I did everything from restarting my wifi/phone to forgetting the network and restarting the app. But that didn't stop the mandatory 2 ads from playing every single time. Even the bags took over 45 mins to arrive at the carousel. Everything about this flight was a flop and I am beginning to notice that some of these events are becoming a trend. Perhaps it's time I switch loyalty programs.

I would have liked a pillow. The vegetarian wrap and oaten cake was good.

Nice modern plane. Can use your own device for entertainment. Get a snack on the plane.

I like the attention you gave us in Guatemala due to the loss of the flight coming to El Salvador. It was a nice experience. Thanks a lot

We booked seats next to each other. When we got the boarding passes, they were for different rows. The crew were reluctant to help us, so we ended up sitting separately. 1. What’s the point of reserving by seat number if you’re not going to honor that reservation? 2. Even if it gets messed up between reservation and boarding, how is the crew going to deny us the opportunity to arrange to sit together. There were plenty of people flying alone. It could’ve been easily accommodated. Not very customer-friendly at all.

The seats were the worst I have ever flown Too narrow, did not recline and the actual seat was hard as a rock. I will tell all travelers to stay away from Avianca flights.

The worst experience I've ever had because the "people" @ Avianca wouldn't let me fly because they said I needed a round trip ticket

Seating was tight. Seats don't recline. Initial flight was cancelled. Lost two days of vacation.

It was delayed and I lost my connection flight to Cali and I missed my Mom's funeral

I upgraded to businesses class. Because of that the flight was comfortable.

I actually upgraded to the medium level of seats from basic and even doing that it may have been physically the most uncomfortable flight I have ever had. They packed everyone like is a train to death camp. It was a red eye so I hoped to get some sleep but it was physically impossible to find a comfortable way to rest. I met other folks on the same flight and they said the same thing. It was an utterly miserable flight and if I have any other options I will never fly with them again

Deplaning was a mess, I sat in business (seats are horrible) and the front door had a problem so we had to deplane from the rear exit. The stairs were not tall enough to reach so there was a large step down from the plane to the top of the stairs.

I paid over $200 for seat selection for these flights and I was still stuck on long international flights in seats that do not recline and do not have the head support cushion. At this point basically all airlines have those for all seats, and this really took me by surprise and made me not ever want to travel on Avianca. The Kayak agent who called me for the seat selection (Donovan) was courteous, but it seems the system for this doesn't work. I was offered seat selection, for the $200+, but without being able to see what I was selecting, with no guarantee where I'd be...and then I still ended up in terrible seats. On my way to, and especially after, a very intense business trip, the seat situation really soured my experience.
