        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Boston?",
        "answer": "Boston Logan International Airport is just two miles from downtown, making it one of the most conveniently located major US airports. The Silver Line SL1 bus runs free from all terminals to South Station in about twenty minutes and connects to the entire MBTA subway network, making it the most popular and cost-effective option. The Blue Line subway is accessible via a free shuttle from terminals A and B, reaching downtown in about fifteen minutes. Taxis are plentiful and reach the city center in ten to twenty minutes depending on traffic, while ride-share services like Uber and Lyft are widely used and competitively priced. Water taxis operated by Boston Harbor City Cruises offer a scenic and often fast alternative to downtown and the Seaport district. Car rentals are available on-site but driving in Boston can be challenging due to traffic and limited parking. Most travelers use ride-share services or the Silver Line for convenience and value."

        "question": "How far in advance should I book tickets from Paris to Boston?",
        "answer": "For the Paris to Boston route, the optimal booking window is roughly 6–9 weeks (about 45–65 days) before departure, where average fares hover around $680–$683; booking too early (5–6 months out) or too late (within a few weeks) can push prices well above $700 and up to $1,261 at the last minute. For summer travel or holiday periods, you should book earlier — closer to 3–4 months in advance — since demand spikes reduce the availability of lower fares in that sweet spot.",
