        "question": "Which cities in Illinois can I fly to directly or with one stop from Delhi?",
        "answer": "From Delhi there are no non-stop flights to Illinois. You typically connect through major hubs like New York, Chicago O'Hare, or European cities such as London or Frankfurt. Chicago O'Hare is the main gateway for Illinois, serving the entire state. For central or southern Illinois, you may need a further connection from Chicago to regional airports like Peoria or Springfield. Most travelers fly into Chicago O'Hare and then drive or take a short flight to other parts of the state."

        "question": "What are the most popular areas to visit in Illinois and how does that affect where I should fly?",

Springfield attracts history buffs for Lincoln sites and is best reached via Springfield airport or a drive from St. Louis. Galena offers charming small-town vibes but requires flying into Chicago or Dubuque and driving. Most visitors fly into Chicago and travel onward from there."

      "q7": {
        "question": "Do I need a passport or visa to travel from Delhi to Illinois?",
        "answer": "Since Delhi is in India and the traveler is a U.S. citizen, you need a valid U.S. passport to enter the United States. No visa is required for U.S. citizens returning home, but your passport should be valid for the duration of your stay."
      },
      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in Illinois are best to fly into from Delhi?",
        "answer": "From Delhi, Chicago O'Hare is the primary gateway into Illinois with the most international flights and connections. Midway Airport in Chicago mainly serves domestic routes and is not practical for direct arrivals from India. For road trips, O'Hare provides easy highway access, while smaller airports like Springfield or Peoria offer limited service and would require a connection."
