        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from León to Dallas?",
        "answer": "The flight from León to Dallas is about 870 miles and typically takes 2 hours and 30 minutes nonstop. The return leg is slightly shorter at 2 hours and 28 minutes, a negligible difference. American Airlines and VivaAerobus both operate the route with that same scheduled time.",
        "methodology": "Flight times and distances come 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). The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time across all carriers on the route, computed the same way in both directions so the difference reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in method. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two airports, so the actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer.",

        "answer": "At DFW, you can reach downtown Dallas via DART’s Orange Line directly from Terminal A in about 50 minutes; ride-share and taxis are also readily available and take roughly 25–35 minutes without traffic. Rental cars are on-site and offer flexibility but add parking costs. The DART train is the most-used public transit option, while ride-share is the most-used overall for its door-to-door convenience.",

Mexico City offers extensive connections and is a major hub for Aeromexico, while Houston serves as a large United hub with efficient immigration processing for U.S.-bound travelers.

        "question": "How do I get to Del Bajío Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "From downtown León, the most popular and fastest way to reach Guanajuato International Airport (BJX) is by taxi or ride‑share, taking about 25–35 minutes via the highway. Public buses operated by Unebus run from León (stopping at Puerta del Milenio, Sams Centro Max, and Chedraui Poliforum) to the airport from 4:10 am to 11:30 pm, offering a budget‑friendly option. Authorized taxis are available outside arrivals and charge a fixed fare based on your destination, while driving yourself is easy with on‑site parking just off Highway 45.",
