Dennis and I flying First Class to Houston
Here we are flying First Class to Lima, Peru
United was having a credit card deal where you get a pile of points just for using the card, so Dennis signed up. As a result, we were able to purchase first class tickets for the whole trip to Peru. We had never flown first class and we were both looking forward to being able to lie down on the 6 hour flight to Lima.
Ever since I went to Peru in December of 2011, I had wanted to go back with Dennis. Peru was a super fun place to visit and I really enjoyed the city of Cusco, so I couldn’t wait to share it with him. We had planned to go a bit early and start in Lima, then fly to Cusco and do the Machu Picchu Inca Trail Trip with Intrepid. With the first class travel, we were surely starting our adventure out right!
Wine and toasted nuts before dinner
Raviolis and Asparagus
Various tilting positions. These seats lie flat, for ultimate comfort!
Legroom and the Ottoman!
Time for Bed!
When we landed in Lima, we sailed through immigration and customs. We didn’t have any checked bags, so we were able to exit without waiting in line. We walked across the street to the airport Ramada to stay for the night. With the room came two complementary pisco sours at the bar. So, at midnight, after 18 hours of travelling, we enjoyed a nightcap and then went to bed.
Tomorrow, we would transfer to Miraflores District of Lima and then take a walking tour!
