        "question": "Which cities in Haiti can I fly to from Boston?",
        "answer": "From Boston you can fly nonstop to Cap-Haïtien on Spirit Airlines. The main gateway to Haiti is Port-au-Prince, reached with one stop via Fort Lauderdale, Miami, or New York JFK. Cap-Haïtien is the gateway to the north, including the Citadelle Laferrière, while Port-au-Prince is the capital and main hub for onward domestic flights or bus connections. Cape Haitian is closer to Labadee, a popular cruise port. Most travelers choose Port-au-Prince for business or connecting to southern destinations like Jacmel, but Cap-Haïtien is preferred for historic sites and beaches in the north."

      "q4": {
        "question": "When is the cheapest time to fly from Boston to Haiti?",
        "answer": "The cheapest months to fly from Boston to Haiti are typically April, March, and May, with April offering the lowest fares in the low season, while June and July mark the priciest high-season period. For the best deal, book about 5 to 25 days before departure (ideally around 20 days out), and aim for midweek travel since weekends tend to be more expensive. Peak summer and major holidays like Christmas and New Year's will usually push prices higher, so traveling outside those windows and during morning or late-evening departures can help you save.",
        "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. This booking-window guidance is built from the same real flight prices found by Priceline users searching this route, re-grouped by how many days before departure each price was seen (from the departure day out to about 180 days ahead) across the route's price history. At each booking lead time we report the 25th-percentile price — the cheaper end of what travelers were quoted, rather than the rock-bottom minimum (which can be a fluke) or the average (which is pulled up by expensive last-minute fares). The buy-or-wait advice then applies a risk premium that grows as departure approaches, since seat availability shrinks and prices become less predictable; using that adjusted curve we flag windows where waiting is likely to save a meaningful amount (at least $20 or 5%) versus windows where booking now is the better call. Isolated single-day recommendations are filtered out, so the advice only reflects a window that holds for several days in a row."

        "question": "How far in advance should I book flights from Boston to Haiti?",
        "answer": "For flights from Boston to Haiti, the optimal booking window is about 5 to 25 days before departure, with the lowest fares typically appearing around 20 days out.",

        "question": "What are the most popular cities to visit in Haiti?",
        "answer": "In Haiti, most visitors land in Port-au-Prince for culture and history, then head to Cap-Haïtien for Citadelle Laferrière, Jacmel for arts and beaches, and Île-à-Vache for a tranquil island escape. Travel between cities is by road or short domestic flights."

        "question": "Do I need a visa to travel from Boston to Haiti?",
        "answer": "U.S. citizens do need a visa to visit Haiti for tourism, and you must obtain it before travel from the nearest Haitian embassy or consulate. There is no electronic travel authorization; a physical visa in your passport is required. Given Haiti's volatile security situation, always check the latest travel advisories and entry rules before your trip."

      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in Haiti are best to fly into from Boston?",
        "answer": "From Boston to Haiti, Port-au-Prince Toussaint Louverture International Airport is the primary gateway with the most flights from the U.S. Cap-Haïtien International Airport in the north is a good alternative for reaching the Citadelle and northern beaches, though service is less frequent. There are no rail connections, so onward travel relies on roads or domestic flights."

      "q12": {
        "question": "When is the best time of year to visit Haiti?",
        "answer": "For Haiti, November to March offers the driest, most comfortable weather and avoids the summer heat and hurricane season, though prices peak around the holidays. Late spring and early summer see more rain and higher humidity."
