I have heard the airport is small, but I am wondering if there is anywhere to wait behind security in arrivals ?

I'm doing some long-term travel and then meeting my partner in Cartegena who is coming in on a flight that arrives 2h after mine in Cartegena. Instead of going to the hotel and waiting there, I would prefer to just wait for them to arrive at the airport. Preferably behind security/baggage reclaim so I don't have to deal with people approaching me to take a taxi, etc, while I'm just trying to chill and wait.

Is there somewhere suitable to do this ?

Heading to Colombia and Peru in July and so far have the following itinerary:

Day 1 cartegena arrive afternoon

What do people think about this plan ? Could it be improved?

I have fomo and don't want to cut arequipa, but I realise it's a bit tight. Is it completely unrealistic?
