After another short trip to Peru, I boarded the returning flight back to USA on 28th of January. It was with LAN Airlines (my first time flying with the airline), and it was a red-eye flight that left at midnight and arrived in JFK in the morning same day. Many flights bound for USA or Europe left around the same time from the airport. There was a red-eye flight bound for Argentina next to my flight.
My friend graciously gave me ride to Jorge Chavez Intl Airport all the way from Lima University. The airport wasn't crowded at all, but there were significant amount of passengers departing for USA or Europe that same time.

On the way to the airport, we stopped by at a Mapy's store to grab some Empanadas.
After good-byes with friends, I headed inside the terminal. The left half of the terminal are international counters.

Push-back
Not too long after take-off (maybe one hour), we got a midnight snack.
It was a sandwich that had cheese, ham, and tomatoes. Dessert was a Banana Cake
LA 530 is a two-segment flight from Santiago, Chile to New York-JFK. That's why the flight route map shows route all the way from Santiago.
I woke from a good 5-hour long sleep around this point.
And the breakfast was served.
The breakfast was an omelette with no meat, fruits, banana bread, and bread. .
