Beavis K Post Count: 15 Msg: #1 16 days ago, November 11th 2009 | Hi there, | Does anyone know how to go from Lima to Cusco, ie: how much for flight; bus or train? How long does it take? How safe, etc. Please let me know as much as you can, thanks a lot. Cheers K  Jo Trouble Jo McCarthy Post Count: 2994 Msg: #2 16 days ago, November 11th 2009 | Hi Kin, | I've flown from Lima to Cusco - check LAN airways. Sleeping at Lima airport if you ariive late and fly to Cusco early the next morning, is quite safe, quite a few people do it. Beavis K Post Count: 15 Msg: #3 14 days ago, November 12th 2009 | Hi Jo, | Thanks for your advise, I've heard that Lan charges more on the English site than the Spanish one, and if you are not Peruvian and buy ticket from from the Spanish site, they will charge you extra when you board the flight, is it true? Have you heard anything like that? Thanks K Jo Trouble Jo McCarthy Post Count: 2994 Msg: #4 14 days ago, November 12th 2009 | Charging extra when boarding the flight sounds strange. When I get a chance I'll check both sites and compare. | Around what dates/times are you looking at flying, and is it just one way?

Thanks K Jo Trouble Jo McCarthy Post Count: 2994 Msg: #6 14 days ago, November 12th 2009 | I checked the Peru link and the US (English) one. | The US ones were $200 each way, no change searching as a return flight. 'Flexible' category. The Peru site had an extra category on the one way option for $110 called 'Base Plus' - the main difference between the two seemed to be that 'Base Plus' is non-refundable. Searching as a return flight the Peru site had a third option for $41 - 'Base' The Peru site had a note saying the 'Base' fares are only for residents in Peru, and if you can't produce a Peruvian residency card you will get charged an extra $178 - must have been the part you had heard about.

NUTS! is lan the only airline in peru? are there any travel websites like priceline.com expedia.com... etc as we do in USA to compare various flights? | I need lima->Cusco and Lima->Iquitos return....seems like this will be a costly venture! Jo Trouble Jo McCarthy Post Count: 2994 Msg: #9 14 days ago, November 12th 2009 | I only looked directly on lan.com so far - definitely worth checking a flight search engine. | Let us know if you find any better fares. ranjanrocks Niranjan Rupanarayan Post Count: 11 Msg: #10 14 days ago, November 12th 2009 | Lima-> Cusco retun for Jan 1st week is about $450 with tax...lol i booked Miami->Lima return for about $505!! this is funny! | Coquette Lana Bukvic Post Count: 1 Msg: #11 11 days ago, November 15th 2009 | I booked with Taca airlines - one way Lima -Cuzco for 129 US on Dec 29. There were return tickets for 152US. So depends when you go... | ranjanrocks Niranjan Rupanarayan Post Count: 11 Msg: #12 11 days ago, November 15th 2009 | thats what i found....
