The flight was operated by an all Peruvian crew, a first between the UK and Peru

Its five-times-weekly Heathrow-Lima service was inaugurated at the weekend. Latam will operate the route on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays.


It becomes Latam’s second direct route linking the UK with Latin America, complementing its daily London-Sao Paulo service.


Flights to Peru’s capital are timed at around 12 hours, and will be operated by a two-cabin Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft offering 30 premium business seats and 217 economy.
