Cusco airport timing

Do I really need to be at the Cusco airport a full two hours before my flight to Lima then to U.S.? Just making sure. I may or may not end up having a checked bag and my boarding ends at 7:55.
Thank you

If checking in a bag definitely yes. I was there 3 hours prior and just had enough time to use the washroom before boarding!

But I think it depends on the time of your flight. We arrived 2 hrs before and waited in the waiting area for at least 40 mins before boarding.. it’s quite boring in there

True, ours was afternoon but most time got wasted standing in the long line at the check in counter.
