        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Davao to Iloilo?",
        "answer": "The flight from Davao to Iloilo is about 340 miles. Nonstop service is available, with a typical flight time of 1 hour 20 minutes on Cebu Pacific (5J) and 1 hour 45 minutes on Cebgo (DG). The return leg from Iloilo back to Davao takes about 1 hour 25 minutes, making the outbound direction slightly faster.",
        "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.",

Cebu Pacific runs four flights a day (departing around 05:35, 14:00, 20:25, and 21:50), while Cebgo offers two daily departures (around 18:35 and 19:10).

        "answer": "Iloilo International Airport is about 24 kilometers (15 miles) northwest of Iloilo City proper, connected directly by Sen. Benigno S. Aquino Jr. Avenue (Diversion Road), an 8-lane highway with a protected bike lane. Taxis and ride-hailing services are available at the terminal and are generally the most convenient and commonly used way to reach the city center. Public mass transit is limited; there is no direct train or dedicated airport express bus, though local jeepneys and vans serve nearby routes with transfers. Car rentals are available at the airport but are less common for short city transfers. For most travelers, a taxi or ride-share is the fastest and most practical option, typically taking 30–45 minutes depending on traffic.",

        "question": "How do I get to Francisco Bangoy Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "Getting to Francisco Bangoy International Airport from Davao city center is easiest by taxi or ride-share, which take about 15–25 minutes depending on traffic and are the most popular choice. Public jeepneys and buses heading toward Sasa or Buhangin can drop you near the airport entrance, but they are slower and less direct. Driving yourself is also an option with paid parking available at the terminal, though spaces can fill up during peak hours. Taxis and ride-shares are generally the fastest and most convenient, while jeepneys are the cheapest but least comfortable.",
