        "answer": "Miri Airport is about 9.5 km from the city center, and taking a taxi or a ride-share like Grab is the fastest and most common way to get there. The Miri City Smart Bus is a free public transit network with eight loop routes that all start from the Miri Stage Bus Terminal downtown, but it may be less direct for airport transfers. Car rental desks are available at the airport for those who prefer to drive themselves. There is no rail or mass rapid transit link, so road transport is the only option.",

Other connecting routings may exist but are less frequent.",

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.",

        "question": "How do I get to Labuan Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "From downtown Victoria, the quickest and most popular way to reach Labuan Airport is by taxi or ride‑share, taking about 5–10 minutes for the short 2.5–5 km trip. Public buses do serve the airport, but services are infrequent and less reliable. Driving yourself is also an option, with parking available at the terminal; however, given the short distance, a taxi is usually the most convenient and cost‑effective choice.",

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. 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. 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. 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.",
