        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Athens to Mykonos?",
        "answer": "Direct flights from Athens (ATH) to Mykonos (JMK) typically take around 40 to 45 minutes. There are no practical layover flights on this short route, as connections would be inefficient. Flight time is roughly the same in both directions. Aegean Airlines and Olympic Air offer frequent service with similar durations."
      },
      "q1": {
        "question": "Are there any direct flights from Athens to Mykonos?",
        "answer": "Two airlines fly nonstop from Athens to Mykonos: Aegean (A3) and Sky Express (GQ), with flights running daily on both carriers. Aegean operates about 8 flights a day (56 per week), while Sky Express offers roughly 6–7 daily departures (44 per week), giving travelers frequent nonstop options throughout the day from early morning to late evening.",
        "methodology": "Airlines and weekly frequencies are compiled 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 count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports.",

        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Mykonos?",
        "answer": "From Mykonos Airport (JMK) to Mykonos Town (Chora), the distance is about four kilometers. Taxis are the most convenient option, taking roughly ten minutes, but they are limited in number and demand often exceeds supply during peak season. A public bus service operates between the airport and the Fabrika terminal in Mykonos Town, taking about fifteen minutes and offering a reliable, low-cost alternative. Ride-share services are not widely available on the island. Car rentals are popular for exploring beaches and villages beyond the town, and several agencies operate at the airport. Walking is possible but involves a road with limited pedestrian infrastructure. Most visitors use taxis or the bus, with the bus being the most used due to its affordability and regular schedule in summer."

        "question": "Are overnight (red‑eye) flights available from Athens to Mykonos?",

Aegean Airlines (A3) operates daily red‑eyes departing around 22:20 and 23:45, while Sky Express (GQ) offers late‑evening departures around 21:15–21:30 on most days. These flights depart after 9 PM and arrive shortly after, qualifying as overnight service.",
        "methodology": "Red-eye flights are identified from scheduled local departure and arrival times in our flight-schedule database — built from published airline timetables and official schedule data, including U.S. Department of Transportation records for domestic routes — flagging services that depart late at night and arrive the following morning; for connecting itineraries the red-eye is based on the timing of the overnight long-haul leg.",
