        "question": "How far in advance should I book flights from Chennai to Singapore?",
        "answer": "For Chennai to Singapore, aim to book about 6 to 10 weeks ahead for the best balance of choice and price — this busy short-haul corridor has multiple daily nonstops and fares that tend to rise closer to departure, especially around holidays and weekends.",
        "methodology": "Stop counts, connecting hubs, and per-airline prices are drawn from a large sample of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours. We group those fares by number of stops, by the hub airport a connection routes through, and by operating airline, and report each group's share of the sample alongside its lowest and median price. 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."

      },
      "q12": {
        "question": "When is the best time of year to visit Singapore?",
        "answer": "Singapore has a consistent tropical climate year-round with high humidity and frequent rain, so there is no distinct summer peak. The driest months are typically February to April. For a balance of slightly lower humidity and fewer crowds, consider visiting between February and April or during the quieter periods outside major holidays like Chinese New Year."
      },
      "q13": {

Ride‑share services like Ola and Uber are widely available and convenient, while prepaid taxis and auto‑rickshaws provide fixed‑fare options from downtown.
