It's still being advertised on Lan's homepage (so it's hardly "a find") and can be booked through orbitz.com without too much trouble. aa.com seems to barf if you try to replicate/book it, but nothing new there. Lan is saying 7 day inimum stay, but orbitz seems to be spitting out same day & overnight turnarounds (about to go try & book one to check).

Hmm. You're right. It was there before. They've still got Miami-Quito at $449, but that's not nearly as good. I wonder if I simply mis-read it? Matrix has got it LAX-LIM at $649. Still not as good, and on Delta <shudder> via ATL.

In case anyone else if heading to LIM and thinking of using their BA Avios for the little hop to CUZ: Since those are operated by Lan Peru, they can't be booked with Avios despite seeing award seats on BA's own site. 
Hours of my life down the toilet going 'round and 'round with BA before finally getting that answer. Hope this saves y'all some time and stress...

BA Avios can be used for LAN tickets LIM-CUZ, at least as of last month when I booked six tickets using BA's call enter. They even waived the fee since they couldn't be booked online as round trips.
Unless something has changed very recently, I'd expect that this is still possible.
