You can't fly directly from Cusco to Nazca... You could fly to Lima and take a bus or a tour to Nazca and then fly over the Nazca lines or you could charter a plane from Lima (expensive but the option exists, this tour site has details). Apparently you can also fly from Ica or Pisco... There are other flight operators but I can't recall their names.

Thanks for the suggestions, I guess I'll just have to weigh the options.
Are the flights signifigantly more money to fly over the lines from Ica or Pisco than they would be flying directly out of Nazca?

I still have not done the Nasca-Cusco road, but relatives told me it's beautiful.

I just saw those flights at the "Nazca Flights" website. The site quotes prices of $79 for overflight from Nazca, $179 departing from Ica, $173 departing from Pisco, $459 departing from Lima (details are all in the website, this doesn't include airport tax)...

Nasca to Cusco
About doing this trip, I just found an article on a family trip (by car) from Nasca to Cusco:

I don't know if the buses use that route but it seems like an interesting trip (they used this traveler's guide by Rafo León).
