Atlanta → Lima flights

Median fare $231 — bottom quartile sits right at the $218 floor

Key takeaways

• Median round-trip fare is $231, with the observed floor at $218
• Bottom quartile (25th percentile) sits at $218 — essentially the same as the low, suggesting cheap fares appear fairly often
• Top quartile jumps to $284, and the high hit $300, so pricing isn't flat
• Overall spread of 38% between low and high signals real volatility on this route
• Sample size of 23 daily snapshots is decent but still a single month's window — patterns could shift seasonally

The full picture

The Atlanta–Lima route shows a median fare of $231 across 23 daily snapshots, with prices ranging from a low of $218 to a high of $300. That's a 38% spread — wide enough that timing and luck in search results clearly matter. Notably, the 25th percentile ($218) is nearly identical to the observed low, which suggests that cheap fares near the floor aren't rare outliers but come up with some regularity. The 75th percentile at $284, however, shows that a meaningful share of snapshots skew well above the median, so travelers who don't shop around risk paying $50-70 more than necessary.

We don't have granular day-by-day booking-window data (how far in advance each fare was captured), so we can't say precisely when in the booking horizon this route tends to soften. What the data does support is a general strategy: given the gap between the bottom and top quartiles, it's worth checking fares on multiple occasions rather than booking the first price you see, since $218-$231 fares clearly exist in the market alongside $280+ fares.

No dominant carrier was identifiable in this dataset, so we can't speak to airline-specific pricing behavior or whether one carrier is driving the low end versus the high end. The 38% spread is on the higher side compared to more stable routes, meaning this market has some inherent unpredictability — possibly due to a mix of carriers, connection options, or seasonal demand shifts within the snapshot window. One honest caveat: with only 23 samples covering roughly a month, we're seeing a snapshot in time, not a full seasonal cycle. Fares on this route could look different during peak Peru travel season (June-August) or around major holidays, so treat this median as a useful benchmark rather than a year-round guarantee.
