        "question": "When is the cheapest time to fly from Amman to Egypt?",
        "answer": "The cheapest months to fly from Amman to Cairo are typically during the low season, avoiding peak summer and major holidays when demand and prices rise. Midweek departures, especially on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, tend to be less expensive than weekends, and early morning or late evening flights often offer lower fares. Booking at least a few weeks in advance can help secure better deals, though last-minute discounts are rare on this popular short-haul route.",
        "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. 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. 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. 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. The typical price, the lowest fare, a 'great deal' threshold, and how fares are spread across price bands are summarized from a large sample of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours, with a small fraction of extreme outlier fares excluded from the range."

        "question": "What are the most popular cities to visit in Egypt?",
        "answer": "Cairo draws visitors to the Pyramids and Egyptian Museum. Luxor and Aswan offer Nile cruises and ancient temples. Alexandria has Mediterranean history and the Red Sea resorts of Sharm El Sheikh and Hurghada are popular for diving."
      },
      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in Egypt are best to fly into from Amman?",
        "answer": "From Amman to Egypt, Cairo International is the primary gateway with the most flight options and connections to Nile cruises, Luxor, and Aswan. Hurghada and Sharm el-Sheikh are better for Red Sea resorts, while Alexandria Borg El Arab suits Mediterranean coast visits and is closer to the city center than the older El Nouzha airport."
      },
      "q12": {
        "question": "When is the best time of year to visit Egypt?",
        "answer": "For Egypt, October to April brings milder temperatures ideal for exploring Cairo, Luxor and Aswan. Summer is extremely hot and less comfortable for sightseeing, while spring and autumn offer a good balance of warmth and manageable crowds."
      },
      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Queen Alia Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "The fastest and most popular way to reach Queen Alia International Airport from central Amman is by taxi or ride‑share, offering door‑to‑door convenience without fixed schedules. Public buses also serve the airport, providing a more affordable option, though the journey can be slower and less direct. Driving and parking at the airport are possible, with both short‑term and long‑term parking available. The Amman Bus and Bus Rapid Transit network connects various parts of the city, but does not directly serve the airport, so a transfer is required.",
