        "question": "Which cities in Haiti can I fly to from New York?",
        "answer": "From New York you can fly non-stop into Port-au-Prince, the capital and main entry point. Cap-Haïtien in the north has limited direct connections but is reachable via Miami or Port-au-Prince. Travelers choose Port-au-Prince for business or onward domestic travel, and Cap-Haïtien for the Citadelle and beaches."
      },
      "q1": {

One-stop itineraries to Cap-Haïtien usually range from 6 to 9 hours total travel time depending on the connection."

        "question": "When is the cheapest time to fly from New York to Haiti?",
        "answer": "The cheapest months to fly from New York to Haiti are August and July, with August being the low season. For the best fare, book about 7 to 10 weeks ahead, as prices tend to dip around 65 days before departure and rise sharply for last-minute bookings. While specific day-of-week and time-of-day patterns aren't available for this route, midweek flights (Tuesday/Wednesday) and early-morning or late-night departures are generally cheaper on most routes. Peak summer (June) and major holidays are typically more expensive, so avoiding those periods 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 New York to Haiti?",

        "question": "What are the most popular cities to visit in Haiti?",
        "answer": "Most U.S. travelers fly into Port-au-Prince for its museums and markets. Cap-Haïtien offers access to the Citadelle and Sans-Souci Palace. Jacmel is known for its art scene and beaches. Île-à-Vache provides a quieter coastal escape. These destinations are reachable by domestic flights or road from the capital."

        "question": "Do I need a visa to travel from New York to Haiti?",
        "answer": "U.S. citizens do not need a visa for tourist stays in Haiti, but a valid U.S. passport is required. There is no electronic travel authorization for Haiti, though entry rules can change with little notice, so check the latest State Department advisories before departure."

      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in Haiti are best to fly into from New York?",
        "answer": "From New York to Haiti, Port-au-Prince Toussaint Louverture International Airport is the primary gateway with the most direct flights and connections to domestic destinations. Cap-Haïtien International Airport serves the north and is a good choice if you are headed to the Citadelle or Labadee resort area. There is no passenger rail network in Haiti, so onward travel is by road or small domestic flights."

      "q12": {
        "question": "When is the best time of year to visit Haiti?",
        "answer": "The best time to visit Haiti is from November to March, when the weather is dry and temperatures are comfortable, avoiding the hot, rainy summer season and the peak of hurricane risk."
