ROUTE INTELLIGENCE · AIRCRAFT RECOMMENDATION ENGINE
BEST VALUE
Midsize
The Bombardier Learjet 60XR clears both runways and has range headroom on the 1,870 nm leg without stepping up into a larger, more expensive cabin — the lowest hourly cost that still handles this pair reliably.
Indicative all-in €17,600
FASTEST
Heavy
On 1,870 nm the Dassault Falcon 50EX carries the highest cruise speed in the eligible short-list. The saving is roughly 25 minutes of block time against the smallest eligible class — worth it on a same-day return, marginal otherwise.
Indicative all-in €35,300

On Lima → São Paulo, aircraft positioning is the biggest lever on price today.
PRICE DRIVERS
Aircraft based off-route are repositioned to Lima before pickup — the shorter that leg, the more competitive the quote.
If the aircraft can't pick up a return charter from São Paulo, the empty repositioning leg is baked into your quote.
Landing, handling and ramp fees on LIM–CGH are set field by field — LIM and CGH each carry their own coordinated-airport surcharge profile.
Across 1,870 nm the fuel uplift is a bounded line item on LIM–CGH, not the driver of the quote.
Lima → São Paulo demand cycles pull the 1,870 nm sector off its low band on peak weeks.
Ramp capacity at CGH constrains the lift available for 1,870 nm inbounds from Lima — operators quote accordingly.
Weather rarely re-prices LIM–CGH beyond marginal fuel adjustments over 1,870 nm.
Slot coordination at CGH — peak-season Saturdays especially — forces earlier commitment on Lima departures and raises handling on LIM–CGH.
At 1,870 nm, LIM–CGH sits far inside a single crew duty period — no augmented crew cost.
Overnight parking at CGH is normally available and adds a defined ramp and handling fee to the LIM–CGH quote.
SAVING OPPORTUNITIES
Saving levers on Lima → São Paulo
If the aircraft is already positioned closer to another Lima-area field, using it reduces positioning cost and often trims 5–15% off the quote.
Alternative arrivals near CGH can trim handling and slot pressure on LIM–CGH — see the airport comparison above.
LIM ↔ CGH (1,870 nm) is a corridor we monitor for empty legs — set an alert and match one when your dates flex.
Departing 2–4 hours off the peak slot window at LIM drops handling and slot fees on the 1,870 nm run to CGH.
1,870 nm is inside super-midsize range, so a category step down from heavy metal on LIM–CGH cuts the quote with almost identical cabin comfort.

Lima → São Paulo operational profile
Nonstop feasibility
Well within super-midsize range — comfortably nonstop on this corridor.
Typical flight level
FL370–FL430 across 1,870 nm on LIM–CGH
Typical routing
Overland European upper routes — direct via UN airways with minimal detour.
Runway
6,365 ft (shorter of LIM and CGH) favours midsize and super-midsize jets; heavy metal may need payload optimisation.
Fuel stop likelihood
No fuel stop on 1,870 nm; LIM–CGH is a single-sector mission for every class we quote.
Cabin service
Cold gourmet catering, coffee/espresso, single hot service typical.
Best departure time
Mid-morning (10:00–12:00) departure from LIM clears the weekday slot peak and lands CGH before midday handling pressure.

€15,700 – €36,100
Midsize through Heavy over 1,870 nm LIM–CGH, all-in of landing, handling, crew and fuel surcharge. Weekend and peak-season departures out of LIM sit at the upper end.
Price stand: August 2026. LIM–CGH quotes move with fuel, crew duty and slot availability — we re-price at the point of booking.
Positioning into Lima (LIM)
With little metal based on the field, aircraft typically ferry in from SPJC (0 nm, 1 aircraft). A 30–60 minute positioning sector is normal and is already inside the quotes above — beware anyone showing a price that ignores it.
Positioning into São Paulo (CGH)
With little metal based on the field, aircraft typically ferry in from SBSP (0 nm, 4 aircraft), SBMT (7 nm, 1 aircraft), SDAM (52 nm, 1 aircraft). A 30–60 minute positioning sector is normal and is already inside the quotes above — beware anyone showing a price that ignores it.
Phenom 100 / Citation M2 and comparable light jets
At 1,870 nm this sector is beyond a comfortable light-jet leg with full seats and bags — you buy a fuel stop, and a stop costs more than the class saves. It is also the class where golf bags and ski gear stop fitting.
Global 7500 / Gulfstream G650 on a short sector
Over 1,870 nm an ultra-long-range cabin bills roughly €8,100/hour for a flight measured in single-digit hours, and rarely repositions economically to this pair. You pay ULR money for a cabin you cannot use.
Empty Legs
Repositioning legs departing LIM within 14 days, priced per aircraft for up to 19 seats.

FLEXIBLE DATES
A ±1-day window opens up meaningfully more empty-leg and repositioning options — worth signalling in the enquiry.
