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. Carrier service and weekly frequencies are summarized from our flight-schedule database, which draws on published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data, and observed operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI).

        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Fort Lauderdale?",
        "answer": "Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) offers several ground transportation options to the city center. The Brightline station at the airport provides high-speed rail service to downtown Fort Lauderdale in under ten minutes and also connects to Miami and West Palm Beach, making it a standout choice. Broward County Transit bus Route 1 runs along US-1 and reaches the city center in about thirty minutes, serving as an affordable but slower option. Taxis and ride-share services like Uber and Lyft are readily available and can get you downtown in roughly fifteen minutes, depending on traffic. Car rentals are convenient for exploring South Florida but less practical for short city trips. Most travelers prefer ride-share for its balance of convenience and cost, though Brightline is gaining popularity for its speed and comfort."

        "answer": "The cheapest months to fly from Aguadilla to Fort Lauderdale are September (average $239), October ($246), and August ($251), while the most expensive are March ($551), April ($460), and December ($447).",
        "methodology": "This 'good deal' estimate shows a representative best price for each departure date across roughly a 12-month window (about 3 months back and 9 months forward). It is built from real flight prices found by Priceline users searching this route, accumulated into a price history for each departure date. Rather than weighting all of that history equally, we apply exponential time decay so recent prices dominate — a price seen yesterday counts almost in full, one from about a month ago roughly a third, and prices from a few months back very little — giving a figure that tracks today's market instead of a stale long-run average. Clear price outliers are removed before any calculation, departure dates with no observations are filled in from nearby dates, and the resulting curve is lightly smoothed so it reads as a clean seasonal trend rather than day-to-day noise. For this route, fares for the requested travel direction were unavailable, so the pattern shown is derived from the reverse direction, which shares the same seasonal demand cycle.",
