Never flown them myself, but I know plenty of people who have with no issues.  Two and a half hours should be plenty of time to make the connection.

Bus Travel in Peru - Is it safe?
Published (2009-12-19 17:13:00)
If I had listen to all that LP guides said I would have travelled with a bodyguard !!! I was in Peru solo, took night buses and I felt very safe, just take a reliable company like Cruz del Sur.

searchin4sabatini wrote: I can't believe $131 bucks is a dealbreaker for a trip to Argentina Not so much of a dealbreaker, it's just that I could go down there for a week and probably not even spend $131, business class flight included so that adds a lot to the trip.   I would rather go somewhere else without that kind of fee and have that money to spend on other things.

In case anyone was wondering, I found out on ThornTree that there's a booth on the first floor of the airport in Bogota where you can get vaccinated for about $25.

Mendoza tips!
Published (2009-12-11 04:26:00)
Hi Lisa! Here´s what I wrote in a different forum post: Mendoza is really nice. Normally perfect weather and a relaxed city with a fair size. When there make sure you have dinner at 3 90 (Tres con Noventa) where they have incredibly cheap and delicious pasta and a tiramisu to die for :-) It is located on Arístides Villanueva 451. If you have time you should also do a wine tour. Go to the town of Maipú first and visit the bodegas around...

I know some people who have done Cotopaxi, and none of them were in like excellent shape or had much experience. From what I understand it's not a technical climb, and the hardest part is the altitude. I'm looking at doing it next year possibly, and we've been told that you should spend at least a week in Quito first, and that an experienced climber or guide are highly recommended due to the ...

Hi all I am now trying to find availability (in a dorm) for Carnaval 2010. Rio (Ipanema) would be my first preference but am also interested in Salvador. Does anyone have any experience with Carnaval in either of these cities? Does anyone know of any availability at any good hostel? I have tried a few in Rio but with no luck. I have been to both cities before, but in December time. Would ...

The amounts are according to the ammount Argentineans pay to apply & get the Visa for those countries. (No matter if you get the visa or not). Since Argentina doesn't demand citizens from those countries to get a Visa, then they decided to apply that reciprocity payment. Fair enough.

Totally safe to travel with night bus ( cruz del sur the most expensive, soyuz, ormeno ) I did nazca-cusco ( cusco is awesome don't miss it and machu picchu of course ), and cusco-puno without problem and took a flight from puno-juliaca ( don't stay in juliaca, seems pretty wild ) 1h30min instead of 24hrs of bus Enjoy your trip.

I have flown on them with no problems. They are no different from any other airline. You can never take for granted that you will get to your destination on time when flying. There can be issues with weather, maintenance, crew, services, etc.

Colombia is fine. You will not get kidnapped. They are looking for people who can get a lot of ransome money so just blend in and use common sense.

No. Yes. Maybe. Seriously, WTF... I hate these types of topics, they have been asked a bunch of times and the same rules apply as always, don't be an idiot and generally bad things will not happen to you... Even if you take every precaution bad stuff can still happen but that's true of anywhere... Jonny, just get out there and do it already...
