With the Latin America travel industry continuing to grow, one airline is adding routes to accommodate popular itineraries. Lan Peru, having announced last month four new international flights a week between Lima and San Francisco, have recently made another announcement. Further expansion will feature Easter Island and Iguazu, Brazil, two important Latin America travel destinations.
There will be a new flight connecting Cusco with Iguazu, making Peru travel connections to the breathtaking waterfalls even easier. With this new direct access visitors will be able to see two of South America’s most important travel destinations in less than a week (Machu Picchu and Iguazu Falls). Iguazu Falls is one of the most exciting natural sites in the world, with 275 falls along a 1.6 mile section of the Iguazu River. It was named an UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987.
The second addition to Lan Peru will be a few flights a week between Easter Island and Lima. This will eliminate the need for travelers to go to Santiago before flying to Easter Island. Lan is clearly expanding its Lima hub, with even more plans in the future for new connections and additional frequencies to popular business destinations.
The new flights to Easter Island will be launched sometime in the second half of 2010. Beginning with a few flights a week, they will be matching the demands of the consumers. Lan says Easter Island and Iguazu are only a part of what they are planning for the coming years. Several expansion options are being considered such as a flight to the Galapagos, teaming up with TAME carrier. Flights to the Galapagos are very restricted so Lan would be unable to operate any new services to the island chain’s two airports.
With Lan’s expansions focusing especially on southern destinations, Latin America travelers can benefit from the efficiency of more routes. Travelers have more flexibility on how they want to plan their vacation.
