It has been reported on Lonely Planet that some users have been experiencing issues when booking in PeruvianAirlines.com.

We wanted to make sure we included a post about this on our website to see if we can help anybody out there having problems with the online reservations system.

“Please i need a help booking for flight through peruvian airlines oficial site .it seems to be a problem buying ticket with my perfect valid visa card . after filling all details with pasport and credit card number it said to me that “an error occured in transaction” and my credit card is not verified by Visa program. how can i get through and get my ticket to arequipa note that only credit card that i have is Visa
Thanks”

There were two suggestions:

“i read somewhere else they dont seem to like free email accounts. try your work or school email and see if that helps. good luck.”

and

“Verified By Visa Cards are required and work best usually the problem

Be sure you are using one of those and have done that”.

Also following the thread we read a couple of more notes.

“hey,
i had the same problem. After calling my bank and Visa and getting no answers i finally logged onto my online banking and there was a link to register with ‘verified by visa’. its basically an extra protection thing or something and after i signed up i booked my ticket no problem.
good luck”

“There is also an international toll free number you can call… they were quite nice, but unable to help fully.

Make sure to have the verified by visa (there is an equivalent program with MC) as you will need it for many/most types of online purchase in Peru. Some banks (ex-Citibank) do not offer it. I ended up using the Verified by Visa on my debit card which is a Visa and it was fine.

Yes, the statement about free email accounts is true.

You can indeed book or pay at the airport or at offices on major Peruvian cities.”

Hope this helps any users out there. We also suggest booking through a travel agent that has an agreement with Peruvian Airline or any other Peruvian domestic airline.

LAN Peru Airlines said Thursday it was considering offering foreigners free transportation to southern Peru to revive tourism after the Cusco region was hit by torrential rains last month, Xinhua informed.

The special offer will benefit those who choose LAN Peru to come to Peru and wish to visit Cusco, said Jorge Vilchez, general manager of the airline company.

He said domestic tourists would also enjoy a discount of nearly 50 percent on each flight.

“The number of tourists coming from abroad such as Japan and Germany registered a big drop. We are talking about 10,000 less reservations,” said Vilchez, who urged the Peruvian government to start a promotion campaign for all tourist destinations in Peru.

Vilchez added that the company’s new air routes such as Lima-Madrid-Paris and Lima-San Francisco would contribute to the arrival of more foreign tourists.

Tourist arrivals in Cusco dropped by more than 50 percent shortly after the torrential rains, declining from 7,800 in the first three days of January to 3,300 at the beginning of February, according to the local government.

The downpours paralyzed traffic on the ground and forced the government to evacuate about 4,000 people, including tourists, with helicopters from around the renowned ancient Inca ruins site Machu Picchu.
