They can take care of:
-Your landing permits
-Overflying permits
-Ground handling
-Fuel (100LL!? You won’t get that everywhere)
-Parking
-Flight Plan
-Hotel booking
-etc...

You to pick what you want them to do according to your budget.
Just don’t be cheap, it can save you a lot of hassle.


And avoid Lima (SPJC) if you can.
This place is not set up for general aviation (unless you have a very good handler) To give you an idea, pretty much everydody heading to or coming back from Antarctica is avoiding the place.
One of my students is buying the plane in the States and asked me if I could do the trip with him. Always wanted to do a trip like that without the help of a flight support company. Thanks a lot for the advice though, if it proves to be that complicated will probably suggest it to my student..
