FLUFFY trio Huxley, Pasty and Marquess greeted customers at Gatwick yesterday morning to celebrate the launch of British Airways’ new route to Lima, Peru.
Customers were able to pet and take pictures with the 11-month-old alpacas outside Gatwick’s North Terminal or sample a Pisco Sour, ahead of the airline’s first flight to the Peruvian capital.
Lynne Embleton, British Airways' managing director at Gatwick, said: "With the world-famous Inca Trail and the incredible citadel of Machu Picchu, there’s nowhere quite like Peru. Its rich cultural heritage make it one of the most popular places in South America to visit and explore.
“It is great to be the only airline to offer direct services between London and Peru. Lima is a fantastic gateway to some of the most dramatic places to visit in South America and will also provide a new link for British business seeking to invest in Peru’s growing market.”
Prices start from £765 .
