        "question": "Which cities in Ciudad de México can I fly to directly or with one stop from Los Angeles?",
        "answer": "From Los Angeles you can fly non-stop to Mexico City's main airport, Benito Juárez International (MEX), which serves the capital and central areas. The newer Felipe Ángeles International (NLU) is north of the city and has limited direct flights, so you would typically connect through MEX or other Mexican hubs. Most travellers use MEX for convenient access to downtown and southern districts, while NLU is an option if you are visiting northern suburbs or nearby states like Hidalgo."

        "question": "What are the most popular areas to visit in Ciudad de México and how does that affect where I should fly?",
        "answer": "In the Ciudad de México region, most visitors focus on Mexico City proper for its historic center, museums and food. Nearby, Teotihuacán draws day-trippers for pyramids, and the southern neighborhoods like Coyoacán offer a bohemian vibe. All are best served by Mexico City International Airport (MEX), the main gateway. The new Felipe Ángeles International Airport (NLU) also serves the metro area but is farther from central attractions, so MEX remains the top choice for convenience."

      },
      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in Ciudad de México are best to fly into from Los Angeles?",
        "answer": "From Los Angeles, Mexico City Juarez International Airport is the primary gateway with the most flights and best connections to the city center and beyond. The newer Felipe Angeles Airport also receives LAX flights but is farther north, making it less convenient for central Mexico City but potentially useful for trips to northern suburbs or nearby states."
