        "question": "From which U.S. cities can I fly to Bogotá?",
        "answer": "Eleven U.S. cities offer nonstop flights to Bogotá, led by Miami with 279 weekly flights and a flight time of about 3 hours 42 minutes, served by Avianca, American, Emirates, and LATAM. New York (JFK) follows with 105 weekly flights taking roughly 5 hours 45 minutes on United or Avianca, and Orlando, Dallas, Houston, Washington Dulles, Atlanta, Fort Lauderdale, Tampa, Chicago O'Hare, and Boston also have nonstop service, with flight times ranging from about 3 hours 40 minutes from Fort Lauderdale to 6 hours 10 minutes from Chicago and Boston. Travelers from other U.S. cities typically connect through one of these hubs, with Miami, New York, and Dallas being the most practical given their high flight frequency. Choosing a departure city usually comes down to where you live and how many flights operate from the nearest hub — those near Miami, New York, or Dallas enjoy the most options, while others may connect through Atlanta, Houston, or Washington for convenient one-stop itineraries.",
        "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.",
