        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Los Angeles to Entebbe?",
        "answer": "There are no scheduled nonstop flights from Los Angeles to Entebbe, so the journey requires at least one connection. The distance between Los Angeles and Entebbe is about 9,430 miles, and a typical one-stop total travel time ranges from roughly 22 to 28 hours depending on the routing and layover.",
        "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.",

        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Entebbe?",
        "answer": "At Entebbe International Airport, taxis are the most common and reliable way to reach the city center or Kampala, with a trip to Entebbe town taking about 10 minutes. Ride-share services like Uber operate in the area but may have limited availability compared to taxis. Car rentals are available from a few agencies at the airport, though driving yourself requires caution due to local road conditions. There is no direct mass transit from the airport, but private shuttle vans and hotel transfers are popular options for pre-arranged transport. The fastest and most-used method is a taxi, with fares typically negotiated before the ride.",

      },
      "q12": {
        "question": "Which airport should I use in Entebbe?",
        "answer": "Entebbe has one commercial airport, Entebbe International Airport, located about 6 km southwest of the city centre and close to Lake Victoria. It serves as Uganda's main gateway for international and domestic flights, with airlines including Uganda Airlines, Kenya Airways, and Emirates."
      },
      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Los Angeles Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "From downtown Los Angeles, you can reach LAX by public transit on the Metro C Line (Green) and a shuttle, the FlyAway nonstop bus from Union Station, ride-share services like Uber and Lyft, taxis, or driving and parking yourself. The FlyAway bus is often the most popular dedicated airport link, while ride-share and taxis offer door-to-door convenience at a higher cost. Driving gives you flexibility but involves parking fees and potential traffic on the 405 or 105 freeways. Public transit via the C Line is the cheapest option, though it requires a shuttle transfer and takes longer.",
