        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Canberra to Brisbane?",
        "answer": "The flight from Canberra to Brisbane is about 590 miles and typically takes 1 hour 40 minutes nonstop. On the return from Brisbane to Canberra, the flight time is slightly longer at 1 hour 50 minutes due to prevailing winds. Qantas, Virgin Australia, and Jetstar all operate daily nonstop service on this route.",
        "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.",

All three operate daily, with Qantas offering the most frequencies — up to 97 weekly departures, Virgin Australia around 60, and Jetstar about 21. Typical flight time is about 1 hour 40 minutes.",

        "answer": "The Airtrain rail link connects both terminals directly to Brisbane's city center in about 20 minutes, offering the fastest and most-used option. Taxis and rideshare services like Uber are readily available at designated ranks, providing door-to-door convenience. Several car rental agencies operate on-site for those preferring to drive. A free inter-terminal bus also shuttles between the domestic and international terminals. While buses serve the broader airport precinct, the Airtrain remains the most popular choice for reaching the CBD.",
