        "question": "Which cities in Kenya can I fly to from Mombasa?",
        "answer": "From Mombasa you can fly non-stop to Nairobi, Kisumu, Malindi, Lamu and Diani. Nairobi is the main hub for onward domestic and international connections. Malindi and Lamu serve coastal beach destinations, while Kisumu is the gateway to western Kenya and Lake Victoria."
      },
      "q2": {
        "question": "Are there direct flights from Mombasa to Kenya?",
        "answer": "Mombasa is already in Kenya, so the question is unclear. If you're asking about flights from Mombasa to other cities within Kenya, there are frequent non-stop domestic flights to Nairobi and other destinations on airlines like Kenya Airways and Jambojet, taking about one hour. If you meant international flights from Mombasa, there are limited non-stops to a few regional cities, but most long-haul routes require a connection in Nairobi."
      },
      "q3": {
        "question": "Which airlines fly from Mombasa to Kenya?",
        "answer": "Mombasa to Kenya is a domestic route; Jambojet, Kenya Airways, and Skyward Express offer frequent direct flights between Mombasa and Nairobi or other Kenyan cities."
      },
      "q5": {
        "question": "How far in advance should I book flights from Mombasa to Kenya?",
        "answer": "For the short domestic hop from Mombasa to Nairobi, booking 2–4 weeks ahead usually secures a good fare, though during peak holiday periods like December and Easter it's wise to book 6–8 weeks out.",
        "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. 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. The cheapest day of the week and time of day to depart are drawn from the same large sample of real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours, grouped by the day of the week and by the time-of-day window of the outbound departure, with the lowest and average price reported for each."

        "question": "What are the most popular cities to visit in Kenya?",
        "answer": "In Kenya, top destinations include Nairobi for its national park and culture, Mombasa for coastal beaches, Maasai Mara for safaris, Amboseli for Kilimanjaro views and Lake Nakuru for flamingos."
      },
      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in Kenya are best to fly into from Mombasa?",
        "answer": "From Mombasa, Nairobi Jomo Kenyatta International Airport is the main hub for international connections and has the most long-haul options. Mombasa Moi International Airport itself is best for coastal resorts and regional travel. For onward trains, Nairobi offers access to the Standard Gauge Railway linking the city to Mombasa. Kisumu International Airport serves the western region and Lake Victoria but has fewer direct international flights."
      },
      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Moi Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "From Mombasa's city center, taxis and ride‑share services are the most popular and fastest way to reach Moi International Airport, taking about 20–30 minutes depending on traffic and costing a mid-range fare. Matatu minibuses and local buses run along the Mombasa–Nairobi road past the airport entrance, offering a very cheap but slower and more crowded alternative. There is no dedicated airport shuttle or rail link, and driving yourself is possible with on‑site parking available, though it can be more expensive than a taxi for short stays.",
