        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Dallas to León?",
        "answer": "The nonstop flight from Dallas to León is about 867 miles and typically takes 2 hours and 28 minutes. The return flight is slightly longer at 2 hours and 30 minutes.",
        "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 Dallas to León?",
        "answer": "Yes, American Airlines flies nonstop from Dallas–Fort Worth (DFW) to León (BJX) daily with up to 23 weekly departures, and Viva Aerobus also operates nonstop service on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays with evening flights. Together they offer about 185 nonstop flights per week, so you have frequent daily options on American plus three extra Viva Aerobus flights on those three days.",
        "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. 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.",

        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in León?",
        "answer": "From Guanajuato International Airport (BJX), the most practical way to reach León is by taxi or rideshare, with authorized taxi stands outside arrivals and trips taking about 25–35 minutes to the city center. Unebus also runs scheduled buses to León, stopping at several points like Puerta del Milenio and Centro Max, from early morning until late evening. Car rentals are available from major agencies at the airport if you prefer to drive yourself. Taxis are the most commonly used option for their convenience and fixed fares, while the bus is a reliable and cheaper alternative.",
