        "question": "Are there direct flights from Queenstown to New Zealand?",
        "answer": "Queenstown is already in New Zealand, so you are asking about domestic flights.

Flight times range from about 50 minutes to Christchurch up to nearly 2 hours to Auckland."

      },
      "q7": {
        "question": "Do I need a visa to travel from Queenstown to New Zealand?",
        "answer": "Since Queenstown is already in New Zealand, this is a domestic trip and no visa or entry clearance is needed. If you are a U.S. citizen entering New Zealand from abroad, you must obtain an NZeTA (New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority) before travel for short tourist visits."
      },
      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in New Zealand are best to fly into from Queenstown?",
        "answer": "Queenstown Airport itself handles limited international flights, mostly from Australia, so for U.S. travelers the best gateway is typically Auckland Airport, which offers the most long-haul options and connections to regional New Zealand. Christchurch Airport is a closer alternative with some international services and good access to the South Island's resorts and scenic areas, while Wellington works for central connections but lacks direct U.S. flights."
      },
      "q12": {
        "question": "When is the best time of year to visit New Zealand?",
        "answer": "For New Zealand, October to November and March to April offer mild weather, fewer tourists and better value than the busy December to February summer peak."
