Starting today, Wednesday, 29 April, LAN Peru is offering twice weekly flights between our home base (Lima, Peru) and the Colombian city of Cartagena de Indias.

The new nonstop flights, every Wednesday and Sunday, will be operated by a LAN Peru Airbus A319 aircraft, seating up to 144 passengers.

We’ve been saying how Cartagena was the perfect beach extension to a Peru adventure for years now, so thank you LAN Peru for making this journey easier for us and our clients! For an Aracari take on Cartagena, click here.
