One of our favorite deals is back!

Pisco Sours, the ancient Inca city of Machu Picchu, Rainbow Mountain, exquisite cuisine, and so much more — they’re all waiting to be discovered in Peru. Now, you can get there for a lot less, thanks to this awesome business class deal to the South American nation.

Our team has found excellent award availability on nonstop flights from the U.S. to Lima, the Peruvian capital, in business class, starting at just 27,500 miles each way!

While many of Peru’s treasures are found outside the capital, Lima is the international gateway to the country and a city worth exploring, thanks to its rich history and incredible food scene. Let’s take a look at the details.

Award Deal — Details

We’re seeing solid availability in both directions, with most routes operated by American Airlines‘ business class. You can book these for just 27,500 American Airlines AAdvantage miles each way on American’s A321neo, which unfortunately does not have lie-flat seats.

  • Class: Business
  • Route: Miami (MIA) to Lima (LIM)
  • Cost: From 27,500 miles plus $20.60 in taxes and fees
  • Travel dates: September 2026 to April 2027
  • Award seats: Up to 7 passengers per route

With up to 7 seats per flight, this is a great opportunity to fly your family to South America in business class — a destination notoriously tough to find business class availability for.

The best way to look for availability is via Seats.aero. That’s because you can check numerous dates and routes at once to find something that works for you, then click through to book it on American Airlines’ website.

How To Book

Redeeming American Airlines AAdvantage miles is the best way to book this deal. If you have some AA miles sitting around, we’re seeing a bunch of dates available to and from Lima, with up to 7 award seats available per flight!
