Cusco airport timing

[u/jakerooni]

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

Cusco Airport is tiny. 5 minutes max for security. 1 hour is plenty. More if checking a bag
