Actually, the website is now very unclear also when it comes to international routes that include domestic sectors within Peru. For instance, when I try to book Domestic_Peru-LIM-ASU on the Peruvian website, I get a long list of alerts, including, "Los residentes peruanos pueden acceder a las Tarifas Base y Base Plus en rutas nacionales dentro del país. Si utilizas este beneficio, pero no acreditas la residencia, LAN te podrá cobrar un cargo adicional de US$ 177 o negar el embarque. El cobro de este monto se realizará en cualquier punto de tu viaje."

The domestic flights book in Y.

However, when I check the fare conditions on matrix.itasoftware.com for this flight combination, there is no mention of the residency restriction (the restriction does show up in the conditions when I check an exclusively domestic base fare and the statement is very explicit). Who is right here, the fare conditions or LAN's own website?
