        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Jeju Island to Daegu?",
        "answer": "A direct flight from Jeju (CJU) to Daegu (TAE) typically takes about 1 hour to 1 hour 5 minutes. There are no common layover options on this short domestic route, as nonstop service is standard. The return flight duration is essentially the same."

        "question": "Are there any direct flights from Jeju Island to Daegu?",
        "answer": "Yes, there are non‑stop flights from Jeju Island (CJU) to Daegu (TAE). Four airlines — Jin Air (LJ), Asiana Airlines (OZ), Korean Air (KE), and Jeju Air (7C) — operate multiple daily departures, with flights running every day of the week. The schedule data shows a combined total of around 17 daily non‑stop flights, primarily on Boeing 737‑800 and 737‑900 aircraft.",
        "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. 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). Where available, on-time and cancellation rates come from the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) Airline On-Time Performance dataset, and typical fares from the U.S. DOT Airline Origin and Destination Survey (DB1B), a quarterly 10% sample of tickets sold. Aircraft types are taken from the equipment each operating carrier schedules on this route, drawn from published airline timetables and airline equipment schedules in our flight-schedule database. They describe typical scheduled aircraft and can vary with seasonal or day-of-week assignments and last-minute equipment swaps. 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.",

        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Daegu?",
        "answer": "Daegu International Airport (TAE) is located about six kilometers from the city center, making ground transportation quick and easy. The most popular option is public bus, with routes 101, 401, and 719 connecting the airport to central areas like Dongdaegu Station and downtown in about twenty to thirty minutes, depending on traffic. Taxis are readily available and cost about 10,000 to 15,000 KRW for the short ride, offering convenience for those with luggage. Ride-share services are not widely used in Daegu, with KakaoTaxi being the main app-based taxi service. Car rentals are available at the airport but are more practical for exploring the surrounding region rather than the compact city center. Most visitors use the bus due to its low cost and frequency."
