The flight takes about 1 hour and 15 minutes, with over 20 daily departures from Jorge Ch\u00e1vez Airport. Airlines like LATAM, Sky Airline, and JetSMART offer different fares to suit various budgets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pro Tip:<\/strong>&nbsp;Book morning flights.

Although it\u2019s longer, it offers a unique view of Peru\u2019s geography, from the coast to the Andes. Companies like Cruz del Sur, Civa, and Oltursa offer reclining sleeper seats, air conditioning, and onboard service.<br>Taking the bus is a good alternative for those who want to save on airfare or enjoy the scenery, but it\u2019s recommended only if you have enough time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1015\" src=\"https:\/\/dreamy.tours\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bus-de-Lima-a-Cusco.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40585\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dreamy.tours\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bus-de-Lima-a-Cusco.webp 1800w, https:\/\/dreamy.tours\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bus-de-Lima-a-Cusco-768x433.webp 768w, https:\/\/dreamy.tours\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bus-de-Lima-a-Cusco-1536x866.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-train-to-machu-picchu\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Train_to_Machu_Picchu\"><\/span>Train to Machu Picchu<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no direct train from Lima to Cusco, but many travelers combine their arrival in Cusco with a train ride to Aguas Calientes, the gateway to Machu Picchu.
