    You might be interested to learn that on 1st February LCPeru is starting flights from Lima-Pisco.

    On 1st April, LCPeru is starting flights from Lima-Pisco-Nazca-Cusco-Lima. When you reach Pisco, you changed to another plane and have a flight over Nazca (1hr 40 mins) and then return to continue on to Cusco. Or you can stop at Pisco and do the Nazca bit and then continue on your own way by another itinerary and mode of transport.
