        "question": "Are there any direct flights from Cartagena to Orlando?",
        "answer": "There are no nonstop flights between Cartagena (CTG) and Orlando (MCO). The shortest one-stop connections typically take around 7 hours 40 minutes, most often via Bogotá (BOG) with Avianca or via Panama City (PTY) with Copa Airlines. Fares start around $408 round trip, with Avianca generally offering the lowest median price at $568.",
        "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. Aircraft types are taken from the equipment each operating carrier schedules on this route, drawn from published airline timetables and airline equipment schedules in our flight-schedule database. They describe typical scheduled aircraft and can vary with seasonal or day-of-week assignments and last-minute equipment swaps. 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. Stop counts, connecting hubs, and per-airline prices are drawn from a large sample of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours. We group those fares by number of stops, by the hub airport a connection routes through, and by operating airline, and report each group's share of the sample alongside its lowest and median price.",

Taxis, ride‑sharing services (Uber/Lyft), and rental cars are readily available, with rental cars being the most popular choice for visitors. Public transit is available via Lynx bus routes, but there is no direct rail link to downtown. Ride‑sharing is often the fastest door‑to‑door option, while taxis provide a fixed‑rate alternative. Shuttle services also operate to major theme parks and hotels.",

Metered taxis are widely available and affordable, while apps like Uber and Cabify operate in the city and offer fixed, upfront pricing. Public buses also serve the airport along the Crespo route and are the most economical option, though they can be slower and less convenient with luggage. Driving yourself is possible with on‑site parking available near the terminal, but navigating local traffic and limited spaces can be challenging.",
