        "question": "How far in advance should I book flights from Saint Thomas to Puerto Rico?",
        "answer": "For the short hop from Saint Thomas to Puerto Rico, booking 3–6 weeks ahead is a practical window, since this is a regional route with frequent daily service and fares typically around $358–$521.",
        "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. 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."

        "question": "What are the most popular cities to visit in Puerto Rico?",
        "answer": "In Puerto Rico, visitors often start in San Juan for Old San Juan and beaches. From there, explore the east coast for El Yunque and Luquillo, the west coast for Rincón’s surfing and Cabo Rojo’s cliffs, and the islands of Vieques and Culebra for bioluminescent bays and pristine beaches. All are reachable by short flights or drives from San Juan."
      },
      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in Puerto Rico are best to fly into from Saint Thomas?",
        "answer": "From Saint Thomas to Puerto Rico, Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport in San Juan is the primary gateway with the most connections, making it ideal for onward travel to the mainland or other Caribbean islands. For a more resort-focused stay, Rafael Hernández Airport in Aguadilla serves the west coast beaches, while Mercedita Airport in Ponce is convenient for the south. San Juan offers the best options for rental cars and public transit to explore the island."
      },
      "q12": {
        "question": "When is the best time of year to visit Puerto Rico?",

      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Cyril E King from the city center?",
        "answer": "From downtown Charlotte Amalie, shared safari-style taxis and standard taxis are the primary ways to reach Cyril E. King Airport, taking about 10–15 minutes. Safari taxis are the most popular and cheapest option, while private taxis offer a faster, direct ride for a higher fare. Ride-share services are not widely available, and there is no public bus or shuttle service to the airport. Driving yourself is an option with short-term parking at the terminal, but rental cars are often unnecessary for the short trip.",
