Where these numbers come from
Observed service A carrier record shows this named operator serving this named pair, and we carry that through unchanged.
Schedules, seat counts and fares are generated by our own model until the supplier contracts are signed. Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance are real. We would rather say that on every page than let a modelled number pass for a filed one.

CUZ is not in Cusco, and the road in from it is the part of the trip nobody plans. We sell the flight and stop at the terminal door.
A car waiting when you land in Cusco
Settled in advance, so the ride into Cusco costs what it said it would rather than what the rank says.
