        "question": "Which cities in Australia can I fly to from Cairns?",
        "answer": "From Cairns you can fly non-stop to many Australian cities including Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Darwin, Adelaide, Perth, and many regional Queensland airports. Cairns Airport acts as a gateway to the Great Barrier Reef, with frequent domestic connections via major hubs like Brisbane and Sydney for those heading to southern capitals or remote outback destinations."
      },
      "q2": {
        "question": "Are there direct flights from Cairns to Australia?",
        "answer": "Cairns is already in Australia, so this is a domestic query. There are many non-stop flights from Cairns to major Australian cities. For example, you can fly direct to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane or Darwin on airlines like Qantas, Jetstar and Virgin Australia. Flight times range from about two hours to Brisbane to around three hours to Sydney or Melbourne."

      "q6": {
        "question": "What are the most popular cities to visit in Australia?",
        "answer": "Your origin and destination are both in Australia, so this is a domestic query. For international travelers flying from the U.S., popular Australian cities include Sydney for its harbor and beaches, Melbourne for culture and food, Brisbane near the Gold Coast, Cairns for the Great Barrier Reef and Perth for its remote beauty."
      },
      "q12": {
        "question": "When is the best time of year to visit Australia?",
        "answer": "Since you are already in Australia, the best time to explore other regions varies. For southern cities like Sydney and Melbourne, spring (September to November) and autumn (March to May) offer mild weather and fewer crowds. Summer (December to February) is peak season with higher prices, while winter (June to August) is cooler and quieter."
      },
      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Cairns Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "Cairns Airport is about 7 km (4.3 mi) north of the Cairns CBD, and the most popular and fastest options are taxis and ride‑share, with taxi ranks immediately outside both the International and Domestic Terminals. Airport shuttle buses serve hotels, the city centre, Northern Beaches, Palm Cove, Port Douglas, and Cape Tribulation; a dedicated public bus (Kinetic Cairns route 100) to the CBD every 30 minutes is planned for late 2026. Driving and parking are also possible with short‑term and long‑term parking, including covered and disability parking, adjacent to both terminals.",
