Peru Flights

Hi guys I'm going to be living in Canada for 6 months doing a season in Lake Louise, and want to travel to Peru in May 2007 as I'm going to be doing a months orphanage work in Cusco (I will be totally broke as some know, snow bums don't get good wages!!)

Could someone tell me what is the cheapest way to get to peru???

All I can find is flights for around $700 USD inc tax's - does this sound about right -cause it seems really expensive? (or am I stuck with that much?)

Thanks in advance for any help

btw I did a search of the forum but couldn't see exactly what I was looking for thus this post :)

Hi Gigi,

I move your post to a new thread so it will get some feedback. Yes $700 US sounds about right but if you give me your departure city I'll see if we know of any options.

I assume your flying into Lima?

Hey Gigi,
You should be happy with $700 (although I know it sounds expensive)! Right now flights to Peru aren't dropping below $1000- YIKES! My recommendation is that you search every nook & cranny on the internet, as that is where you get the best prices. In addition to your typical Expedia, Travelocity, etc. searches, and your direct airline searches, I've had luck in the past getting cheap flights to Latin America through Exito Travel (www.exitotravel.com). But honestly, I'd say that if you've found a $700 flight grab it while you can, prices can jump up really fast (Last month I bought tickets for my parents to come visit me here in Peru, they cost around $1,100- I just checked to see what the prices now are for the same dates- $2,549!!!!
Good Luck!!!

hey thanks for your feedback guys

D360 - Thanks for moving my post
My departure city is Calgary - hopefully - but am willing to hitch down to Los Angeles if it makes it cheaper (I'm sure one of the hundreds of staff at LL will be heading that way)

Take Care

Many people say Perú is dangeruos but if you know how stay here you wont have problems.
In Perú, many people is really nice but don't speak English. I'm learning english in fact.

Macchu Picchu is a fantastic place if you loocking carefully the mountains loocks similar to a Inca's Face watching to sky.

Good Luck!
