Is it possible to make a stop at Lima? My big trip for next year is Peru. If Easter Island comes free, so much better.
BA permits free en route stopovers on award tickets -- even those on partner carriers -- as long as the stopover point is along the "most direct route" between origin and destination. BAEC customer service should be able to tell you whether LIM is along the "most direct route" from your origination city to IPC.
