      "q4": {
        "question": "When is the cheapest time to fly from Tokushima to Japan?",
        "answer": "From Tokushima to Tokyo, flights are operated by JAL and ANA into both Haneda and Narita, with frequent daily service and a flight time of about 75 minutes. While exact pricing data isn't available for this domestic Japan route, midweek departures and early morning or late evening flights are often more affordable. Peak summer and major holidays like Golden Week, Obon, and New Year tend to be more expensive, so booking a few weeks ahead and avoiding those periods can help you find better value.",
        "methodology": "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."

      },
      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in Japan are best to fly into from Tokushima?",
        "answer": "From Tokushima to other parts of Japan, Osaka Itami and Kansai International offer the most domestic connections, while Tokyo Haneda and Narita serve as major hubs for the east. For regional travel, Fukuoka is convenient for Kyushu and Sapporo New Chitose for Hokkaido ski resorts."

        "question": "How do I get to Awaodori Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "Tokushima Awaodori Airport (TKS) is located in Matsushige, about 15 km north of central Tokushima. The most popular option is the airport limousine bus, which departs from Tokushima Station and takes roughly 30 minutes. Taxis are available and faster, especially outside bus hours, but cost significantly more. There is no direct train to the airport, and ride-share services are not common in the area. Limited parking is available at the airport for those who drive.",
