Domestic airfare for foreigners

I know that in the recent past, Avianca and LATAM always had super cheap domestic fares for Peruvians, but foreigners were not eligible for them. This created a problem on Google Flights where the pricing did not correspond properly to reality for us. However, it seems that the introduction and expansion of the LCC's in Peru has had a positive effect on the legacy airlines' policies. I was able to book a CUZ-LIM flight on Avianca for $50. I used the app and selected USA as my location, but the airfares were still low.

Can anyone confirm that the bad old days of the gringo tax are fading away on these flights? I understand dual pricing for attractions, but it can be a real PITA on airfare.
