Connecting flight at Lima Airport
Hi all, I'm currently in Peru for another 3 weeks or so, before going back home. My flight home leaves at 5.30 pm so I'd have to be at Lima airport between 1.30-2.30 pm (3-4 hours before the flight leaves).
However, my trip ends in Cusco, so I'd have to get a flight from there to Lima. I'm thinking of doing this the same day, before the flight to Lima. This would mean for example: get a flight from 10.48 am-12.25 pm from Cusco-Lima, grab my checked in luggage, go from domestic arrivals to international departures and there fulfil the usual steps (check in luggage, go through security etc.).
So a few questions about the feasibility:
How punctual are domestic flights? If I book the above-mentioned flight, will I be guaranteed that the flight arrives at the indicated time (or at least that the delay won't be more than, say, half an hour)?
How long does the process from leaving the domestic flight to going through security for the international flight typically take? I'm flying to Amsterdam (Netherlands), should that matter.
I'm reading online that for international flights, one should arrive 3-4 hours before the flight departure. How accurate is that?
Are there any pitfalls I'm forgetting?
Worst case I can always take an earlier flight from Cusco to Lima, if necessary even the day before.
Thanks in advance!
