Near the main departure gates, Travel Accessories Store covers most last‑minute needs.
This shop sits airside in Alejandro Velasco Astete International Airport (CUZ), a short walk from the main domestic departure gates. It focuses on practical items for carry-ons: neck pillows, eye masks, small backpacks, basic electronics, and rain gear that actually matters in Cusco’s high-altitude weather. Prices run higher than in town, but still reasonable compared with many South American airports.
Opening hours roughly track the first and last flights of the day, so you usually find it open from early morning check-in waves through late evening departures. Expect standard USB charging cables, universal adapters that work across South America, and basic wired earphones if your main pair dies before a 05:30 departure. Battery packs come in a few sizes; look for clearly labeled mAh numbers before paying.
For Cusco-specific needs, you see compact ponchos, lightweight daypacks for Machu Picchu trips, and TSA-size transparent bags for liquids if security at CUZ flags your toiletries. Umbrellas and small locks for hostel lockers show up on the racks too. You also find simple document wallets for boarding passes and passports, helpful when juggling a 7 kg hand-luggage limit.
Card payment in soles works at the counter, and staff usually handle basic English and Spanish questions about plug types and airline rules. Stock shifts during peak June–August season, so power banks and ponchos sometimes run low by late afternoon. Tip: if you need a charger or adapter, buy it here before security lines build for the midday Lima flights.
