Note that we are flying Business Class and Carry-on only.
Do we need to get to LIM 3hr early - at 4am?
Looking for some guidance....
I dont have any recent travel through LIM but it is a relatively small airport compared to US Cat X airports; even so, our guides had us arrive 3 hours ahead of time. Being in J should make the wait for check-in pretty quick, but one never knows... What is your tolerance for stress should there be prolonged wait to check-in/passport-control/clear security and how inconvenient would it be to miss the flight? Is it worth getting there earlier than you might prefer?
