        "question": "Which cities in United States are usually cheapest or easiest for flying to Port-au-Prince?",
        "answer": "Miami and Fort Lauderdale are the shortest and cheapest gateways, with the most frequent nonstop flights. New York also offers direct service but at slightly higher prices. Travelers from other U.S. cities typically connect through Miami or Fort Lauderdale, which can raise costs and travel time."
      },

        "answer": "The cheapest months to fly from the United States to Port-au-Prince are typically September through November and late January through March, avoiding the summer peak and winter holidays. For the best fares, book at least three to six weeks ahead and choose midweek departures, especially Tuesdays and Wednesdays, with early morning or late night flights often priced lower."
      },
      "q6": {
        "question": "How far in advance should I book flights from United States to Port-au-Prince?",
        "answer": "Book flights from the United States to Port-au-Prince 6 to 10 weeks ahead for the best balance of choice and price, but book 12 or more weeks out if traveling during peak periods like U.S. spring break, summer holidays, or Haitian Carnival, when demand surges."
      },
      "q8": {
        "question": "What is the baggage allowance on flights from United States to Port-au-Prince?",
        "answer": "From the US to Haiti, standard economy usually includes one or two checked bags, but basic economy on American, JetBlue or Spirit may charge for any checked luggage. Premium cabins allow more. Confirm with your airline, as rules vary by fare and carrier."
      },
      "q10": {
        "question": "What time of day is usually cheapest for flights from United States to Port-au-Prince?",
        "answer": "Flights from the United States to Port-au-Prince are often cheapest when departing in the early morning or late evening, as these off-peak times tend to have lower demand. Afternoon departures can be pricier. However, fare patterns vary by day of week and season, so comparing specific dates is recommended."
      },
      "q11": {
        "question": "Which airport will I arrive at and how do I get from Toussaint Louverture Intl Airport to downtown Port-au-Prince?",
        "answer": "Flights from the United States to Port-au-Prince arrive at Toussaint Louverture International Airport (PAP), located in the Tabarre commune just outside the city. Ground transport into downtown Port-au-Prince relies entirely on road options: taxis, ride‑share services, and private shuttles are the primary means, with typical travel times of 20–40 minutes depending on traffic. There is no train or metro connection from the airport, and public buses are not a reliable option for visitors, so arranging a pre‑booked transfer or using a licensed taxi is recommended.",
