        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Adelaide to Perth?",
        "answer": "The flight from Adelaide to Perth covers about 1,310 miles and typically takes 3 hours 20 minutes. The return leg is shorter at 2 hours 50 minutes due to prevailing winds. Qantas, Jetstar, and Virgin Australia all operate nonstop service on this route.",
        "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": "Are there any direct flights from Adelaide to Perth?",
        "answer": "Yes, Qantas, Virgin Australia, and Jetstar all fly non‑stop from Adelaide to Perth daily. Qantas offers the most frequent service with up to 13 departures a day, Virgin Australia runs about 8, and Jetstar around 9, so you have plenty of choices throughout the day. The flight typically takes around 3 hours and 15 minutes westbound and about 2 hours and 50 minutes on the return.",
        "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 Perth Airport, the Airport Line train is the fastest and most popular way to reach the city center, taking 18 minutes from T1/T2 or 15 minutes from T3/T4 via Redcliffe Station. Taxis are available 24/7 with a roughly 20-minute ride, though a $4.50 airport surcharge applies. Public buses, including routes 37, 292, and 940, also connect the terminals to nearby train stations and the city. Ride-share services and rental cars are available but are less commonly used for direct city-center access.",

Virgin Australia operates overnight departures most nights at 9:45 PM or 9:50 PM, and Qantas runs one on Sunday nights at 9:00 PM. These flights are short enough that they arrive the same night before midnight, not the next morning.",

        "question": "How do I get to Adelaide Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "Adelaide Airport is about 6 km west of the city center, reachable in several ways. The most popular and cost‑effective option is the JetBus (routes J1/J2), which runs frequently from Currie Street and takes around 25 minutes. Taxis and ride‑share services are available at the kerbside and take about 15–20 minutes in normal traffic, costing more than the bus. Driving yourself is also an option, with short‑term and long‑term parking at the terminals, but it’s generally the priciest choice for longer trips.",
