Cached-fare history: across 5 months, Mar is the cheapest for LON → LIM. Best time to be there: Dec–Apr.
Fares bottom out in March around $1,028 and peak in December near $1,800 — a $772 spread across the 5 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes one stop and takes about 14.5 hours outbound, on a 17-night trip — ticketed under Iberia, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $1,028 for 10,170 km each way, that works out to about $51 per 1,000 km flown. That is above the $44 typical of long-haul fares here. Across the 18 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Lima, this fare ranks 16th — 44% above the $714 from Copenhagen. For context, the middle fare among the 35 routes of similar length we watch out of London is $642.

LON → LIM, answered.
Is $1,028 a good price for London to Lima?
Only slightly. The seasonal median is around $1,090 round-trip and this fare is 6% under it, about $62. We do not call a drop notable until 20%, so this is an ordinary price for the route rather than a reason to hurry.
What is the cheapest month to fly from London to Lima?
Across 5 months of cached-fare history, Mar comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in Lima are Dec–Apr — when those overlap, that's your window.
How far in advance should I book LON → Lima?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. What we can measure is which month is cheap: across 5 months of cached fares, Mar comes out lowest on this route. See /guides/what-moves-a-flight-price/ for what does move a fare.
Are there nonstop flights from London to Lima?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under Iberia. Nonstop options exist on many dates at higher prices — check the live search for your exact dates.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on September 1). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
