        "question": "When is the cheapest time to fly from Guangzhou to Vietnam?",
        "answer": "The cheapest time to fly from Guangzhou to Vietnam is typically during the shoulder seasons of late spring (April–May) and early autumn (September–October), when demand eases between the peak summer holiday rush and the Lunar New Year period. Midweek departures, especially Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and early-morning or late-night flights tend to offer lower fares on this short-haul route. Peak summer (June–August) and major holidays like Lunar New Year and China's National Day in early October are usually the most expensive times to fly.",
        "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. Where a median fare is shown for a carrier, it reflects the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours. 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."
