        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Nashville to Toronto?",
        "answer": "The flight from Nashville to Toronto is about 640 miles and typically takes 1 hour 58 minutes. The return leg from Toronto to Nashville averages 2 hours 4 minutes, a difference of just 6 minutes, so the outbound time is representative in both directions.",
        "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": "Yes, Air Canada and WestJet both fly nonstop from Nashville to Toronto. Air Canada operates up to 10 daily departures, while WestJet runs about 11 flights per week on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday. Air Canada is the low-fare leader with median fares around $332, compared to about $592 on WestJet.",
        "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.",

        "answer": "The fastest and most popular way to downtown Toronto is the Union Pearson Express train, which reaches Union Station in 25 minutes with departures every 15 minutes. Public transit buses also connect the airport to many parts of the city and region, including the TTC’s 900 Airport Express to Kipling station. Taxis and ride-share services are readily available at both terminals. Car rentals are on-site if you prefer to drive yourself.",

        "question": "When is the cheapest time to fly from Nashville to Toronto?",
        "answer": "Average fares from Nashville to Toronto bottom out around $358 in late January, with October and September the cheapest months overall at $370 and $374 on average. Prices stay fairly moderate through much of the year, hovering between roughly $370 and $415 most months, before climbing in the summer and again over the holidays. The most expensive time to fly is late December, when average fares reach about $449.",
        "methodology": "Seasonal fares come from Priceline's own air booking-summary archive, analysed in-house and refreshed monthly. For each day of the year we take a representative round-trip fare, a blend of the 25th-percentile and average ticket price over the route's bookings, and smooth the series into a seasonal curve; the half-month low and high and the monthly figures quoted here are averages of that curve. Thin and international routes borrow their seasonal shape from the nearest busy routes, with the price level anchored to the route's own bookings.",

        "methodology": "Red-eye flights are identified from scheduled local departure and arrival times in our flight-schedule database — built from published airline timetables and official schedule data, including U.S. Department of Transportation records for domestic routes — flagging services that depart late at night and arrive the following morning; for connecting itineraries the red-eye is based on the timing of the overnight long-haul leg.",

        "question": "What documents should I bring with me to the airport when flying from Nashville to Toronto?",

        "question": "Which airport should I use in Toronto?",
        "answer": "Toronto Pearson is the primary international airport, serving most major airlines and offering the widest range of connections. Billy Bishop Airport is located on the Toronto Islands, much closer to downtown, and primarily handles regional flights via Porter Airlines and Air Canada Express, ideal for business travellers heading straight to the city centre."
      },
      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Nashville Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "From downtown Nashville, the bus (Route 18) is the most affordable public option, running to Music City Central, while shared shuttle vans serve area hotels and offer a middle ground on cost. Taxis and ride-shares are the fastest and most popular, reaching the airport in about 15 minutes for roughly $25. Driving yourself is straightforward with several on-airport rental companies and parking garages, though parking fees add to the expense.",
