Major non-stop routes include Bengaluru to Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai and Hyderabad, operated by airlines like IndiGo, Air India, SpiceJet, Vistara and Akasa Air. Flight times range from about one hour to two and a half hours depending on the destination."

      },
      "q4": {
        "question": "When is the cheapest time to fly from Bengaluru to India?",
        "answer": "For domestic flights from Bengaluru to other Indian cities, the cheapest months are typically February through early April and August through mid-November, outside of major festivals and school breaks. Midweek departures — especially Tuesday and Wednesday — and early morning or late evening flights tend to be cheaper than weekend or midday travel, while peak summer (May–June) and the Diwali/Christmas holiday periods usually bring the highest fares.",
        "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."

      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in India are best to fly into from Bengaluru?",
        "answer": "Since you are already in India, flying from Bengaluru to other Indian cities is domestic. Major airports like Delhi, Mumbai, and Chennai act as hubs for connecting to smaller cities and tourist destinations. Delhi and Mumbai offer the most onward flights and train connections, while Goa and Kochi are best for beach resorts and regional travel."
      },
      "q12": {
        "question": "When is the best time of year to visit India?",
        "answer": "The best time to visit India is typically from October to March, when the weather is cooler and drier across most of the country. Summer, from April to June, brings intense heat and higher prices in popular tourist areas like Rajasthan and Goa, while the monsoon season from July to September can bring heavy rains. Spring and autumn are not distinct seasons in India, but the post-monsoon period of October and November offers lush landscapes and comfortable temperatures."
      },
      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Kempegowda Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "From central Bengaluru, the Vayu Vajra air-conditioned bus service is the most popular and economical way to reach Kempegowda International Airport, with frequent routes from key points like Majestic and Electronic City. Ride-share apps and taxis offer door-to-door convenience and are faster, especially outside peak traffic hours, but at a higher cost. A suburban train halts at Kempegowda International Airport Halt station, with a free shuttle to the terminal, though train frequency is limited and not daily. Driving yourself is possible, but parking fees and traffic can make it less attractive than other options.",
