        "question": "Which airports in Washington can I fly into?",
        "answer": "Seattle-Tacoma International Airport is the primary gateway with the most flights from across the United States. Spokane International Airport also receives non-stop service from major hubs and can be cheaper for eastern Washington destinations. Smaller airports like Paine Field and Bellingham offer limited routes, mainly from West Coast cities, and are convenient for regional connections. Fares into Seattle are generally competitive, but Spokane may offer lower prices on certain routes."
