        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Goa to Delhi?",
        "answer": "The flight from Goa to Delhi is about 935 miles and typically takes 2 hours and 35 minutes. The return leg is also around 2 hours and 35 minutes, with no meaningful difference between directions. Multiple airlines operate nonstop service, including Air India Express, IndiGo, and Air India.",
        "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.",

      "q1": {
        "question": "Are there any direct flights from Goa to Delhi?",
        "answer": "Yes, three airlines fly nonstop from Goa (GOI) to Delhi (DEL): IndiGo (6E), Air India (AI), and Air India Express (IX). All three operate daily, with IndiGo offering the most frequency at about 11 flights per day, while Air India runs two daily and Air India Express also runs two daily. The flight takes roughly 2½ hours.",
        "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. 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.",

        "answer": "From Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL), the fastest option to the city center is the Airport Express Line of the Delhi Metro, which connects directly to New Delhi Railway Station. Taxis and app-based ride services like Uber and Ola are widely available and offer door-to-door convenience. The Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) also runs air-conditioned buses to various points in the city. Car rentals are available at the airport, though driving yourself is less common due to heavy traffic. The Delhi Metro is the most-used option for its speed and reliability.",

        "answer": "From central Goa, the most popular way to reach Dabolim Airport is by prepaid taxi or app‑based ride‑share, which is the fastest option and takes about 45–60 minutes from Panaji. Public buses run from Panaji and Margao to the airport but are slower and less frequent; a shuttle service is not available. Driving yourself is possible, with paid parking at the terminal, though rates are moderate and spaces can fill during peak season.
