        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Boston to Dhaka?",
        "answer": "There is no scheduled nonstop service between Boston and Dhaka, so a connection is required. The airports are about 7,710 miles apart, and a typical one-stop journey usually takes between 20 and 27 hours total travel time, 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 Dhaka?",
        "answer": "There are no nonstop flights from Boston to Dhaka. The shortest connecting option is typically via Doha on Qatar Airways, with a total journey time around 16 to 17 hours including a layover of about 90 minutes to just over an hour and a half. Turkish Airlines also offers a one-stop routing via Istanbul, though with a longer layover and total travel time closer to 20 hours.",

        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Dhaka?",
        "answer": "From Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, the most practical way into central Dhaka is by ride‑hailing app — Uber, Pathao, Obhai, and Shohoz all operate at the terminal and are widely used. Metered taxis are available from a kiosk at the international arrivals exit, though they are less common than app‑based rides. An airport railway station sits just outside the terminal and offers a low‑cost train link, but services can be infrequent and crowded. Car rentals exist but are rarely chosen for city transfers given Dhaka’s heavy traffic. For most visitors, an app‑based car is the fastest and most‑used option.",

        "question": "Which airport should I use in Dhaka?",
        "answer": "Dhaka has one main airport, Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, which serves all international and domestic flights. It is located about 20 kilometres north of the city centre, with easy access to major attractions like the National Parliament House and Lalbagh Fort."

        "question": "How do I get to Logan Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "The MBTA Blue Line and Silver Line provide affordable public transit to Logan, with the Silver Line SL1 directly connecting South Station to all terminals. Logan Express buses run from Back Bay, Braintree, Danvers, Framingham, and Woburn, offering a comfortable and cost-effective option. Taxis and ride-share services like Uber and Lyft are widely available and often the fastest choice, while on-site parking is available with advance reservations for those driving. The Silver Line is popular for its direct link from downtown, but ride-share or taxi is quickest, albeit pricier.",
