Is there any way I can get the agent in LIM to check the bags through only as far as MAD? This way we can spend a decent amount of time in the city and be back for checkin for LHR in the afternoon? We're all UK citizens so no issues re visas etc.

Any help much appreciated, because after months away it would be nice not have to spend yet another day stuck in an airport!
I don't see why not having your bags would be a problem leaving the airport. It's not as if your bags would be getting on a flight without you and as long as you have an EU passport you can just walk out of the airport and jump on the train to the the city centre.
