        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Geneva to New York City?",
        "answer": "The flight from Geneva to New York City is about 3,850 miles and typically takes 9 hours nonstop. The return leg is shorter at 7 hours 45 minutes, a difference of over an hour due to prevailing winds.",
        "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": "Swiss (LX) flies non‑stop from Geneva to New York JFK once daily, departing at 11:40 AM. The flight operates every day of the week and takes about 9 hours eastbound, with the return leg about an hour shorter due to prevailing winds.",
        "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 JFK, the AirTrain links all terminals to the subway and Long Island Rail Road, making it a fast, affordable option for reaching Manhattan. Taxis offer flat-rate fares to the city, while ride-share services like Uber and Lyft pick up at designated areas. Rental cars are available at Federal Circle via the AirTrain, and shared shuttles provide a budget-friendly alternative. The AirTrain-to-subway connection is the most widely used method, and it's often the quickest way to Midtown during peak hours.",

        "question": "Which airport should I use in New York City?",
        "answer": "JFK handles most international flights and is a primary hub for Delta and JetBlue. Newark Liberty is an alternative for United loyalists and offers good access to Lower Manhattan. LaGuardia mainly serves domestic routes and is closest to Midtown, so it is less relevant for this international trip."
      },
      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Cointrin Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "The fastest and most popular way to reach Geneva Airport from the city center is the train, which takes about 7 minutes from Geneva-Cornavin station and runs frequently. Upon arrival, passengers receive a free 80-minute public transport ticket that covers the train ride. Taxis and ride‑share are available but are notably more expensive; driving is also an option with parking at the airport, though costs can add up.",
