        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Amman to Chicago?",
        "answer": "The flight from Amman to Chicago is about 6,220 miles and typically takes 12 hours 40 minutes nonstop. The return flight is shorter at 11 hours 40 minutes due to prevailing winds. Royal Jordanian operates daily nonstop service between Amman and Chicago O'Hare.",
        "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.",

Taxis, limos, and rideshare services like Uber and Lyft are readily available and offer door-to-door convenience, typically taking 30–60 minutes depending on traffic. Rental car counters are on-site for those who prefer to drive. Regional shuttles and buses also serve the airport for destinations beyond downtown. The Blue Line is generally the fastest and most popular choice for getting to the Loop.",
