      "q4": {
        "question": "When is the cheapest time to fly from Surabaya to Malaysia?",
        "answer": "The Surabaya–Kuala Lumpur route has daily nonstop service on AirAsia Indonesia, Malaysia Airlines, and Batik Air Malaysia, with departures spread from early morning through evening. While specific seasonal and booking-window data is unavailable for this route, flights within Southeast Asia are generally cheaper during off-peak months like February, March, September, and October, with midweek departures (Tuesday/Wednesday) and early-morning or late-evening flights often priced lower. Peak summer (June–August) and major holidays such as Eid al-Fitr, Christmas, and New Year tend to be more expensive, so booking at least 4–6 weeks ahead is advisable.",
        "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. Cheapest prices are determined by finding the lowest fare Priceline users have found for the requested route and date in the last 72 hours."

        "question": "What are the most popular cities to visit in Malaysia?",
        "answer": "The question specifies a U.S. origin but Surabaya is in Indonesia, so the prompt's context is inconsistent. I'll assume the intended origin is a U.S. city as per system instructions. For Malaysia, top destinations include Kuala Lumpur for modern attractions and food, Penang for heritage and street food, Langkawi for beaches, Malacca for history, and Borneo's Sabah for nature and wildlife."
      },
      "q7": {
        "question": "Do I need a visa to travel from Surabaya to Malaysia?",
        "answer": "U.S. citizens can enter Malaysia visa-free for tourist stays of up to 90 days. However, you must complete the Malaysia Digital Arrival Card online before travel, and entry rules can change, so verify requirements close to your departure date."
      },
      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in Malaysia are best to fly into from Surabaya?",
        "answer": "From Surabaya to Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur International Airport is the primary gateway with the most frequent flights and easy connections via the KLIA Ekspres train to the city. Penang is a good alternative for beach resorts and northern Malaysia, while Kota Kinabalu serves Borneo adventures. Most Surabaya flights arrive at KLIA, with fewer direct options to secondary cities."

      "q12": {
        "question": "When is the best time of year to visit Malaysia?",
        "answer": "Malaysia has a tropical climate with two main seasons. The best time to visit is generally between March and early October, when the west coast (including Kuala Lumpur, Penang and Langkawi) is drier. For the east coast (Perhentian Islands, Redang, Tioman), aim for April to September to avoid the monsoon. Note that summer (June to August) is peak tourist season, so spring and early autumn offer a better balance of good weather and lower prices."
