Lima -airport lounges

Postby Tassie Trekker » Sat 09 Jun, 2012 4:04 pm

This isn't a strictly bush-walking question ,however I've booked Inca trail -I'm travelling to Peru in October for a month ,arriving in from Islas Ballestas in the afternoon , at the end of my stay in Peru I fly out of Lima at 01.30hrs in the morning to Easter Island .I've been told to expect long delays with air travel in Sth. America. :!:
My travel agent is unable to confirm whether there is an airport lounge at Lima Airport, where for a fee for e.g. $50. you can shower ,change ,and grab a lite meal & rest up .Other airports offer them .My alternative would have been to stay at Ramada Hotel $225 for one nite ...too expensive for my budget .
:?:
Would appreciate anyone who's traveled thru Lima recently & experienced airport facilities there to confirm whether there's anything on offer there ?

:idea: Maybe just take a good thermarest with me & crash in airport waiting area?

thanks,

I haven't been to Lima airport, but your best bet to find out if there is an airline lounge is to work out with carriers fly there and then see if their frequent flyer programs have a lounge there. For example check out One World (Qantas plus many others) they might be able to let you know

But theres nothing wrong with sleeping in an airport either, makes the rest of the trip better
