        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Boston to Belo Horizonte?",
        "answer": "The distance from Boston to Belo Horizonte is about 4,620 miles. There are no nonstop flights on this route, so the journey requires a connection, typically taking around 14 to 18 hours in total depending on the layover.",
        "methodology": "Carrier service, flight times and distances for this route come from our flight-schedule database, which draws on published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data, and observed operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We report the days of the week and the departure times each carrier operates. The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time, given both per carrier and across all carriers on the route; where a schedule does not publish an elapsed time, it is derived from the scheduled departure and arrival times converted to UTC. Outbound and return times are computed by the same method, so the difference between them is directly comparable and reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in derivation. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two specific airports named, so an actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer. Where shown, on-time departure and arrival rates and cancellation rates come from the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) Airline On-Time Performance dataset, which covers U.S. domestic routes only; where a typical fare is shown, it comes from the U.S. DOT Airline Origin and Destination Survey (DB1B), a quarterly 10% sample of tickets sold.",

        "question": "Are there any direct flights from Boston to Belo Horizonte?",
        "answer": "There are no nonstop flights from Boston to Belo Horizonte. The shortest connecting option is via Panama City (PTY) on Copa Airlines, taking about 14½ hours total with roughly a 2-hour layover. Fares on this one-stop routing start around $718, and Copa is typically the cheapest carrier on the route with a median fare near $939.",
        "methodology": "Airlines and weekly frequencies are compiled from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a median fare is shown for a carrier, it reflects the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours. Stop counts, connecting hubs, and per-airline prices are drawn from a large sample of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours. We group those fares by number of stops, by the hub airport a connection routes through, and by operating airline, and report each group's share of the sample alongside its lowest and median price. Aircraft types are taken from the equipment each operating carrier schedules on this route, drawn from published airline timetables and airline equipment schedules in our flight-schedule database. They describe typical scheduled aircraft and can vary with seasonal or day-of-week assignments and last-minute equipment swaps.",

        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Belo Horizonte?",
        "answer": "Flights from Boston to Belo Horizonte arrive at Tancredo Neves International Airport (CNF), about 40 km from downtown. The fastest and most-used option is the Conexão Aeroporto express bus, which runs frequently to the city center in under an hour. Rideshare apps like Uber and 99 are widely available, and taxis are also present but historically cost around US$40—making them pricier than the bus or rideshares. Car rentals can be arranged at the airport, though traffic on the improved MG‑10 highway can be heavy. A light rail link has been planned but is not yet operational.",

One option connects in Panama City (PTY), where the overnight leg PTY–CNF on Copa Airlines departs at 22:47 and arrives at 07:30 the next morning. Another connects in Orlando (MCO), with the overnight leg MCO–CNF on Azul departing at 22:30 and arriving at 08:05 the next morning, fed by a JetBlue flight from Boston.",
        "methodology": "Red-eye flights are identified from scheduled local departure and arrival times in our flight-schedule database — built from published airline timetables and official schedule data, including U.S. Department of Transportation records for domestic routes — flagging services that depart late at night and arrive the following morning; for connecting itineraries the red-eye is based on the timing of the overnight long-haul leg.",

Panama City provides efficient transfers with Copa Airlines and visa‑free transit for many nationalities.

        "question": "Which airport should I use in Belo Horizonte?",
        "answer": "Belo Horizonte has two airports. Confins is the main international gateway located about 40 km from downtown, serving long‑haul flights and major Brazilian carriers. Pampulha is much closer to the city centre, handling domestic regional and executive aviation, ideal for quick access to downtown."
      },
      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Logan Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "From downtown Boston, the MBTA Blue Line and Silver Line buses provide direct, frequent public transit to Logan, with the Silver Line being free from South Station. Logan Express shuttle buses run from Back Bay and several suburban park-and-ride lots, offering a comfortable ride. Taxis and ride-share services like Uber and Lyft are readily available and are often the fastest door-to-door option, though more expensive than public transit. Driving yourself is possible with on-airport parking, but the Silver Line and ride-share are the most popular choices for their convenience.",
