Fly to Lima

Airlines that fly from LAX to Lima

  1. Avianca
  2. Copa - 1/29 $799.30 (includes $280 fuel surcharge) - cheapoair $772.30
    • My personal preference is with the Panamanian airline, Copa. Those flights leave LAX around midnight and fly six hours to Tocumen International Airport in Panama City. Upon arrival at PTY, you DON'T go through immigration; you just have a one hour turnaround to get the next flight to Lima, arriving in Peru around 2:30 p.m., just in time for lunch
  3. Taca - 1/29 $839.90
    • LACSA and TACA, part of the same company, also have long stopovers; they leave LAX around midnight, and you don't get to Lima until the late in the evening of the following day.
  4. Continental - 1/29 $799.00
  5. Aeromexico - 1/29 $904.30
    • The cheap AeroMéxico flight is very tiring. You leave LAX at about 7:30 am (so you have to be at the airport around 4:30 a.m.); fly 3.5 hours to Mexico City, where you HAVE to go through Mexican immigration (even though you are just in transit). Then, you have to wait about 5 or 6 hours until you board the plane to Lima, where you arrive around 11:30 p.m. A very long day, indeed.
  6. LANPeru - 1/29 $799
    • LAN, the Chilean carrier, flies directs, is usually the most expensive, and can have one or two flights a day depending on the season; but, it usually arrives in Lima in the middle of the night as well.
  7. american Airlines - 1/29 $889.50 (including fees)
    • Most US companies take you to one of their hubs (like Houston, or worse Miami) which also makes for a long trip. Those flights always arrive late at night.
  8. Delta - 1/29 $829
  9. United - 1/29 $1,079.30
  10. Air Canada - 1/29 $1004
cheap tickets - AA $670
orbitz - AA & LAN $632
