        "question": "Which cities in Haiti can I fly to from Miami?",
        "answer": "From Miami you can fly non-stop to Port-au-Prince and Cap-Haïtien. Port-au-Prince is the main gateway for business and connecting to southern towns. Cap-Haïtien serves the north and is closer to the Citadelle and Labadee. No major one-stop options improve connectivity beyond these two cities."

      "q4": {
        "question": "When is the cheapest time to fly from Miami to Haiti?",
        "answer": "From Miami to Haiti, the cheapest months are typically September and October, with March also offering lower fares, while April through June tend to be the most expensive. Booking around 18 to 21 weeks ahead usually yields the best prices, and midweek departures generally cost less than weekends. Peak summer and major holidays like Christmas and New Year's are usually pricier.",
        "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 Miami to Haiti?",

        "answer": "U.S. citizens traveling to Haiti for a short tourist stay do not need a visa, but a valid passport is required. There is no electronic travel authorization for Haiti at this time. Entry rules can change, so always verify current requirements with the U.S. Department of State before departure."

        "question": "Which airports in Haiti are best to fly into from Miami?",
        "answer": "From Miami, Port-au-Prince Toussaint Louverture International Airport is the primary gateway with the most frequent flights and connections to other parts of Haiti. Cap-Haïtien International Airport is a good alternative for northern destinations like the Citadelle Laferrière and nearby beaches, though with fewer flight options."
