        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Da Nang to Daegu?",
        "answer": "The nonstop flight from Da Nang to Daegu covers about 1,860 miles and takes roughly 4 hours and 45 minutes. The return flight is effectively the same duration, so there is no meaningful difference between the two directions.",
        "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.",

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.

        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Daegu?",
        "answer": "Daegu International Airport is located about 11 km northeast of the city center. Taxis are readily available and are the fastest and most convenient option, taking roughly 20–30 minutes depending on traffic. Public bus routes connect the airport to various parts of the city and are the most commonly used form of transit, though they are slower. Ride-share services are limited in South Korea, and car rentals are available but less practical for city-center travel.",
