Certainly, the best way to reach Cusco from Lima is by air (1h10\u2019).\u00a0 However, there are many companies that offer this trip at different rates, most of them very expensive, and it might be hard to get your<strong> Cusco flights<\/strong> at a good price.<br \/>\nOk, let\u2019s start by naming the companies and pointing out their pros &amp; cons:<\/p>\n<p><strong>LAN<\/strong>: They have changed their name and now they\u2019re <strong>LATAM<\/strong>. It\u2019s the air company that has the largest number of frequencies in the Country. There is actually a flight to Cusco every hour, so if you have a delay you will easily be taking the next hour flight. However, you need to know that LAN has expensive rates for tourists. If you\u2019re buying online, pay attention to the <strong>country language<\/strong> (since they have different rates for Peruvians &amp; foreign tourists) you might pay an extra fee if your ticket isn\u2019t the right one.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AVIANCA<\/strong>: This air company has a similar policy than LAN. You also have\u00a0to be\u00a0careful with the country language on their website, since rates aren\u2019t the same for both Peruvians and tourists. They offer 6 frequencies during the day, being the first flight at\u00a005h20\u00a0and the last one at\u00a015h00.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PERUVIAN\u00a0AIRLAINS<\/strong>: Unlike other companies, Peruvian airlines <strong>make no difference between Peruvians and tourists<\/strong>, so the rates that you find online are the ones you pay. They also have 6 frequencies during the day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>STAR PERU<\/strong>: This Company works like Peruvian Airlines, they have no different rates for customers. However they have fewer frequencies, only 3 in the morning and 1 in the afternoon.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LCP<\/strong>: This a very new company which offers Cusco flights from Lima. They have interesting rates and offer 6 frequencies a day.<\/p>\n<p>Something very important to know is that if you have international connections in Lima, <strong>make sure to book your domestic flight with time<\/strong>. Sometimes, the 3 last companies above have had delays on their departures, so it\u2019s up to you consider which company to book with. In our experience, all these companies have a similar quality, main differences\u00a0are\u00a0 in number of frequencies and rates.<\/p>\n<p>In brief, if you have a tight itinerary and want to have no delays, LAN\/AVIANCA\u00a0may be\u00a0a good option. Otherwise, Peruvian\u00a0Airlains,\u00a0LCP\u00a0or\u00a0StarPeru\u00a0might offer you the same flight with interesting rates.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_65\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-65\" style=\"width: 555px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-65 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.machupicchu-explorer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/machu-picchu-private-tour.jpg\" alt=\"Private tour Machu Picchu\" width=\"555\" height=\"390\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-65\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wonderful view from the Machu Picchu mountain<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you planning to flight to Cusco and you\u2019re wondering [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":65,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,11],"tags":[13,12],"class_list":["post-63","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-destinations","category-flights-peru","tag-air-companies-peru","tag-cusco-flights"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Lima to Cusco flights, Best air companies and tips for booking<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Lima to Cusco flights, learn which companies offer this trip and how to get your flight tickets.
