        "question": "Which cities in United States can I fly to from Dhaka?",
        "answer": "There are no non-stop flights from Dhaka to the United States. Most itineraries connect via the Middle East, with one stop in Dubai, Doha or Abu Dhabi. From those hubs you can reach major U.S. cities like New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco and Washington D.C. New York is often the most convenient entry point for the East Coast, while Los Angeles or San Francisco serve the West Coast. Your choice depends on your final destination and preferred airline alliance."

        "question": "When is the cheapest time to fly from Dhaka to United States?",
        "answer": "September, October, and April are the cheapest months to fly from Dhaka to the United States, while June and December are the most expensive — you'll also want to avoid peak summer and major holidays. Booking roughly 13 to 16 weeks ahead (around 90–105 days before departure) tends to secure the best fares. Midweek departures generally offer lower prices than weekends, and flights leaving in the morning or late evening are often cheaper than midday departures.",
        "methodology": "This 'good deal' estimate shows a representative best price for each departure date across roughly a 12-month window (about 3 months back and 9 months forward). It is built from real flight prices found by Priceline users searching this route, accumulated into a price history for each departure date. Rather than weighting all of that history equally, we apply exponential time decay so recent prices dominate — a price seen yesterday counts almost in full, one from about a month ago roughly a third, and prices from a few months back very little — giving a figure that tracks today's market instead of a stale long-run average. Clear price outliers are removed before any calculation, departure dates with no observations are filled in from nearby dates, and the resulting curve is lightly smoothed so it reads as a clean seasonal trend rather than day-to-day noise. This booking-window guidance is built from the same real flight prices found by Priceline users searching this route, re-grouped by how many days before departure each price was seen (from the departure day out to about 180 days ahead) across the route's price history. At each booking lead time we report the 25th-percentile price — the cheaper end of what travelers were quoted, rather than the rock-bottom minimum (which can be a fluke) or the average (which is pulled up by expensive last-minute fares). The buy-or-wait advice then applies a risk premium that grows as departure approaches, since seat availability shrinks and prices become less predictable; using that adjusted curve we flag windows where waiting is likely to save a meaningful amount (at least $20 or 5%) versus windows where booking now is the better call. Isolated single-day recommendations are filtered out, so the advice only reflects a window that holds for several days in a row. For this route, fares for the requested travel direction were unavailable, so the pattern shown is derived from the reverse direction, which shares the same seasonal demand cycle."

      "q5": {
        "question": "How far in advance should I book flights from Dhaka to United States?",
        "answer": "For flights from Dhaka to the United States, the best time to book is about 13 to 16 weeks before departure, when average fares drop to around $1,327, with prices rising sharply inside 6 weeks and climbing above $1,700 for last-minute bookings.",

        "question": "Which airports in United States are best to fly into from Dhaka?",
        "answer": "From Dhaka to the United States, there are no direct flights, so you will connect through a Middle Eastern, European, or Asian hub. New York JFK and Chicago O'Hare are the most common entry points with the most long-haul options and extensive domestic connections. Washington Dulles and San Francisco are also good choices for onward travel to the East or West Coast respectively. If your final destination is a resort area like Orlando or Las Vegas, you may need a second connection, so consider flying into a major hub first."

      "q12": {
        "question": "When is the best time of year to visit United States?",
        "answer": "For the United States, April to June and September to October typically offer comfortable weather and fewer tourists than summer, though conditions vary widely by region. Summer is peak season in most areas, with higher prices and larger crowds."
      },
      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Hazrat Shahjalal Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport lies about 17 km north of downtown Dhaka and is reached primarily by the eight-lane Airport Road, where ride-sharing apps like Uber, Pathao, and Obhai are the most popular and generally fastest option for door-to-door service. Metered taxis are available from a prepaid kiosk outside the international arrivals hall, offering a fixed-fare alternative that is cheaper than ride-share but slower in traffic. For public transit, the Airport Railway Station sits directly opposite the terminal and connects to Dhaka's rail network, while driving yourself is possible but parking is limited and expensive relative to other choices.",
