        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Tokyo to Taipei?",
        "answer": "The flight from Tokyo (HND) to Taipei (TSA) covers about 1,300 miles and typically takes 3 hours 50 minutes, while the return leg is about 3 hours, making the outbound roughly 50 minutes longer.",
        "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": "Taipei Songshan Airport (TSA) sits directly in the city's Songshan District, so getting into central Taipei is quick and straightforward. The Taipei Metro's Songshan–Xindian line connects right at the airport, making mass transit the fastest and most-used option for most travelers. Taxis are readily available and offer a convenient door-to-door alternative, though ride-share and car rentals are also present but less commonly used for this short downtown hop.",

        "question": "What documents should I bring with me to the airport when flying from Tokyo to Taipei?",
        "answer": "Bring a passport valid for at least six months, proof of onward or return travel, and a payment method for baggage. Most nationalities can enter Taiwan visa-free for short stays, but check if you need a visa or travel authorization. No vaccination certificates are currently required."
      },
      "q12": {
        "question": "Which airport should I use in Taipei?",
        "answer": "Taipei has two airports. Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport is the primary international gateway, located about 40 km west of downtown, serving most full‑service and long‑haul airlines. Taipei Songshan Airport is right in the city centre, handling domestic flights and select regional routes to China, Japan, and South Korea, ideal for business and quick connections."

      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Haneda Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "From central Tokyo, the fastest and most popular way to reach Haneda Airport is by train—either the Keikyu Line or the Tokyo Monorail, both of which connect directly to the terminals and are relatively inexpensive. Airport shuttle buses run from major hubs across Tokyo, Kanagawa, Chiba, and Saitama, offering a convenient door-to-terminal option at a moderate cost. Taxis and ride-share services are available but are the most expensive choice, especially during peak hours. Driving is possible with on-airport parking at domestic and international terminals, though the airport actively encourages public transit to reduce congestion.",

Children’s facilities include nursing rooms and play areas in each terminal. At Taipei Songshan, the airport and connecting metro station are fully accessible with elevators and escalators at all exits, and assistance can be arranged through airline staff or the airport information desk; children’s play areas are available in the domestic terminal.
