I don't know what you consider a deal. Usually, you can get fares from LAX or SFO to LIM for around $600.00 this time of year. Avoid the Christmas season as fares will tend to go higher.
From LAX, you can fly nonstop on LAN.

A more obscure option ( I opted for from SEA ) is Air Canada to Toronto and down to Lima. Doesn't often show on travel sites, but good if wanting *A miles.. and weirdest of all.. they had the best price! (quick check shows $718 SFO-LIM Jun 2007)

Yes, but in terms of convenience, AC leaves LIM at 2:15 AM or something like that, getting into YYZ at 11 AM. Also, AC only flies this route 3 times a week, I took YYZ-EWR-LIM on CO and found it to be quite good. It's a day flight EWR-LIM and the return is a night flight. Personally, I prefer day flights as I like to read on the plane and can't sleep well on a night flight. On my return flight I was seated with two people from Vancouver who were flying through EWR to Seattle.
Try searching orbitz for the best fare/ schedule combo, in addition to LAN maybe CO through IAH or DL through ATL or AA through MIA.

For the example I gave... $700ish from SEA-Toronto-Lima... is over $900 on CO just from EWR-LIM !!!
*sigh* Convenient flights often don't equate to best fare. I guess that's why I take red eyes, maximize miles, and work my flight schedule to match the best fare available. ( For me, CO isn't an option as it isn't *A )
Price or Quality or Schedule. We get 1, or sometimes 2. When we hit a trifecta it's time to celebrate! ^
