        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from David to Arco Iris?",
        "answer": "A nonstop flight from David (DAV) to Panama City/Arco Iris (PTY) typically takes about 1 hour. There are no common layover routes on this domestic segment, as direct flights are standard. Return flight duration is essentially the same."
      },
      "q1": {
        "question": "Are there any direct flights from David to Arco Iris?",
        "answer": "Yes, Copa Airlines (CM) flies nonstop from David (DAV) to Panama City–Tocumen (PTY, near Arco Iris) with 89 weekly flights operating daily. Departures are spread across the day with morning, afternoon, and evening options, so the route is served very frequently — roughly every couple of hours.",
        "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.",

        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Arco Iris?",
        "answer": "Arco Iris is a residential neighborhood in Panama City, so ground transportation from Tocumen International Airport (PTY) to the city center applies. Taxis are widely available at the airport and offer a direct ride to Arco Iris in about thirty minutes, but they can be expensive and unmetered, so agree on a fare beforehand. Ride-share services like Uber and Cabify operate in Panama City and are often preferred for their transparent pricing and convenience. The Tocumen Airport metro station on Line 2 connects to the city center, but Arco Iris is not directly served by a metro station; you would need to transfer to Line 1 or take a bus or taxi for the last mile, making it less practical with luggage. Car rentals are available at the airport, but traffic and limited parking in Arco Iris make them less ideal for city use. Most travelers heading to that area use ride-share services for their balance of cost and door-to-door convenience."

        "question": "Are overnight (red‑eye) flights available from David to Arco Iris?",

        "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.",

        "methodology": "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.",
