        "question": "When is the cheapest time to fly from Toronto to Mexico?",
        "answer": "For Toronto to Mexico, Tuesday and Thursday tend to be the cheapest days to fly, with morning and evening departures offering the lowest fares. Peak summer and major holidays are usually more expensive, so traveling in shoulder or off-peak months can help keep costs down. Booking a few weeks to a couple of months ahead typically yields better prices on this route.",
        "methodology": "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."
      },
      "q5": {
        "question": "How far in advance should I book flights from Toronto to Mexico?",
        "answer": "For flights from Toronto to Mexico, a practical booking window is typically 6 to 10 weeks ahead, though for peak times like summer and holidays you should book earlier to secure the best fares, while shoulder seasons often allow you to book closer in and still find good deals.",
        "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. 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. 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. 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."

        "answer": "From downtown Toronto, the fastest and most popular way to reach Toronto Pearson International Airport is the Union Pearson Express train, which departs Union Station every 15 minutes and takes 25 minutes. Public transit buses, including the TTC's 900 Airport Express, connect to subway stations and are a lower-cost option, while ride-share services, taxis, and limousines offer door-to-door convenience. Driving and parking are available with both short-term and long-term lots, though traffic can add significant time during peak hours.",
