        "question": "Which airports in Virginia can I fly into from Canada?",
        "answer": "From Canada, the main Virginia gateways are Washington Dulles and Reagan National, both near the DC border with widespread connections from Toronto, Montreal and other cities. Non-stop flights serve Dulles and Reagan. Richmond and Norfolk are smaller airports with one-stop connections and occasionally lower fares."

        "question": "How long is the flight from Canada to Virginia?",

        "methodology": "Flight times 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); the typical time is the median scheduled duration of each departure city's nonstop services to the destination.",

Entry is visa-free for Canadian nationals, and they are generally admitted for a temporary stay as visitors.\n\nThis is general guidance to help you plan, not official immigration advice — entry rules can change and can depend on your nationality and circumstances, so please confirm the current requirements with the relevant embassy or official government source before you travel.",
