Major FAQ-Peru

Airport and Arrival Information

Who will meet me at the airport? What should I do if I am delayed or miss a flight? When should I arrive?

Peru volunteers arrive at Jorge Chavez International Airport - Lima, Peru. Volunteers can expect to stay a night over in Lima and fly the following day into Cusco, Peru where our in-country staff will greet arrival flights. The majority of Lima international flights arrive late in the evening or during the night. All Peruvian Airlines offer affordable flights to Cusco but the service is in the daytime hours. It is unlikely to connect the same evening as arrival. Concierge services at the airport can arrange a taxi to an inexpensive hostel for the night or make prior arrangements for a hotel stay. The cost should be within $25-30 inclusive of taxi and room.

We ask that volunteers fly with all important documents, including volunteer placement, passport, visa and vaccination booklet. Please have them accessible in case producing them is requested. Our volunteers join our program with a tourist visa. Volunteers do not need a long term or working visa.
If some sort of delay occurs, including flight delays or missed flights, contact our Peru office as soon as possible. Volunteers coming to Peru are advised to arrive one day before their program start date. The program fee will cover expenses beginning of the first day of the program (Usually first or third Monday) to the last day of the program. If volunteers arrive before the first day of the program and/or stay beyond the last day of the program, expenses will be the responsibility of the volunteer (usually $30 per day for room/food in hostel).

If there is a delay or missed flight, please contact our local office or coordinator (contact numbers are available in personal placement sheets and pre-departure booklet) and wait for a representative. If there is failure to connect with IFRE’s local rep at the airport, please travel to the contact hotel named in the personal placement documents via a secure taxi. Please do not use taxis outside airport. Airport concierge services can assist.

We advise Peru project volunteers to arrive in Cusco one day prior to program start date. The weekly project fee includes expenses from the first to last day of the project (Usually first or third Monday). Expenses prior to the project’s start date are the responsibility of the volunteer (usually $30 per day for room/food in hostel).
