        "question": "Which cities in Michigan can I fly to directly or with one stop from Lagos?",
        "answer": "There are no non-stop flights from Lagos to Michigan. The most practical option is a one-stop flight to Detroit Metropolitan Airport, the main international gateway for the state, typically connecting through European hubs like Amsterdam, Paris, or London, or through U.S. hubs such as Atlanta or New York. For other Michigan cities like Grand Rapids or Flint, you would connect through Detroit or another major U.S. hub. Detroit serves the southeast and is best for business or visiting the auto industry, while Grand Rapids is closer to the western side and Lake Michigan."

        "question": "Which airports in Michigan are best to fly into from Lagos?",
