Can I make a 35 minutes connection at LIM on an international flight?
35 minutes is below the 75-minute international MCT at Jorge Chavez International. You may need to rush and could miss your connection. LIM operates as one terminal with domestic and international gates on opposite ends of a shared concourse, so there is no train or shuttle — everything is done on foot. Passengers connecting domestic-to-domestic or international-to-international generally stay airside, but anyone connecting between a domestic and international flight must pass through Peruvian immigration and a re-screening checkpoint, which is the main source of delay.
