        "question": "When is the cheapest time to fly from Hiroshima to Japan?",
        "answer": "The Hiroshima (HIJ) to Tokyo (TYO) route is served by frequent nonstop flights on ANA and JAL, with dozens of daily departures from early morning through late evening. For the cheapest travel, aim for off-peak months outside of Japan's major holiday periods — late January to early March and late May to early July (before summer vacation) tend to be more affordable, while peak summer (especially Obon in mid-August), Golden Week (late April–early May), and New Year's are notably more expensive. Midweek departures (Tuesday/Wednesday) and early-morning or late-evening flights often offer lower fares than peak daytime or Friday/Sunday flights. Booking about one to two months ahead typically yields the best value on this domestic route.",
        "methodology": "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. 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. Quoted prices come from real-time, bookable flight offers from our airline partners. Prices are dynamic and subject to change throughout the day. Cheapest prices are determined by finding the lowest fare Priceline users have found for the requested route and date in the last 72 hours."

      },
      "q7": {
        "question": "Do I need a visa to travel from Hiroshima to Japan?",

Your initial entry into Japan would typically be covered by a short-term visa waiver for tourism, but you must have entered lawfully and follow any ongoing entry rules."

      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in Japan are best to fly into from Hiroshima?",

Osaka Itami is a strong alternative for central Japan, while Sapporo New Chitose works well for Hokkaido trips."
