        "question": "From which cities in United States can I fly to Belize City?",
        "answer": "You can fly nonstop to Belize City from 14 U.S. cities, with the busiest gateways being Miami (115 weekly flights on American), Dallas/Fort Worth (62 on American), Atlanta (56 on Delta), and Houston Intercontinental (42 on United). Other nonstop options include Los Angeles, Houston Hobby, New York JFK, Charlotte, Denver, Chicago O'Hare, Minneapolis, and Baltimore, served by carriers like Alaska, JetBlue, Southwest, Sun Country, and United. Travelers typically choose a departure city based on proximity and the frequency of flights—major hubs offer multiple daily departures and convenient connections from smaller regional airports within the U.S.",
        "methodology": "The U.S. departure cities with nonstop service to this destination and their weekly frequencies come 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 identify every U.S. airport with scheduled nonstop service, group airports into their metropolitan areas, and rank cities by scheduled weekly departures.",

Connecting flights from other major cities usually add one to three hours depending on the layover, and return times are similar.",
