      },
      "q4": {
        "question": "When is the cheapest time to fly from Shizuoka to Korea?",
        "answer": "The cheapest time to fly from Shizuoka to Korea tends to be on Tuesdays, with evening departures offering the lowest fares on this route. Midday flights are typically the most expensive, so booking an evening departure midweek can help avoid the higher prices seen at other times. Peak summer and major holiday periods usually drive fares up, though off-peak months outside those windows are generally more affordable.",
        "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. 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. Red-eye flights are identified from scheduled local departure and arrival times in our flight-schedule database — built from published airline timetables and official schedule data, including U.S. Department of Transportation records for domestic routes — flagging services that depart late at night and arrive the following morning; for connecting itineraries the red-eye is based on the timing of the overnight long-haul leg. 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."

      "q6": {
        "question": "What are the most popular cities to visit in Korea?",
        "answer": "In Korea, top cities are Seoul for palaces and shopping, Busan for beaches and seafood, Gyeongju for ancient history and Jeju Island for volcanic landscapes, all well connected by high-speed train or short domestic flights."
      },
      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in Korea are best to fly into from Shizuoka?",
        "answer": "From Shizuoka to Korea, Seoul Incheon is the primary gateway with the most connections and a direct airport railroad into the city. Gimhae International in Busan is a good alternative for the southern coast, while Jeju International suits travelers headed straight to the island."
      },
      "q12": {
        "question": "When is the best time of year to visit Korea?",
        "answer": "For Korea, April to early June and September to October offer comfortable temperatures and lighter crowds than the busy summer months in Seoul and Busan."
      },
      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Mount Fuji Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "From downtown Shizuoka, the most practical way to reach Mt. Fuji Shizuoka Airport (FSZ) is by taxi, which takes you directly from Shizuoka Station to the terminal and is the fastest option, though it is relatively expensive for the roughly 27 km (17 mi) journey. Public buses operated by Shizutetsu Justline run from Shimada Station to the airport, and there are connecting services from Kanaya Station via Daitetsu Advance, making bus travel the most budget-friendly choice but requiring a transfer from the city center. The closest railway station is Kanaya Station on the Tokaido Main Line, about 6 km from the airport, so you can take a train from Shizuoka Station and then a short taxi or bus for the last leg. Driving is also convenient with free parking for 2,000 cars at the airport, and ride-share services are not widely available in this region of Japan.",
