        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Jakarta to Osaka?",
        "answer": "A nonstop flight from Jakarta (CGK) to Osaka (KIX) typically takes around 7 hours and 10 minutes eastbound.

      "q1": {
        "question": "Are there any direct flights from Jakarta to Osaka?",
        "answer": "There are no non‑stop flights between Jakarta (CGK) and Osaka (OSA). The shortest one‑stop connections route via Singapore (SIN) on Singapore Airlines, taking roughly 6½ hours total, or via Bangkok (BKK) on Thai Airways at about 7¼ hours. Other common one‑stop options include Tokyo Haneda (HND) on ANA, Kuala Lumpur (KUL) on AirAsia X or Malaysia Airlines, and Hong Kong (HKG) on Cathay Pacific, all with total travel times mostly in the 7‑ to 9‑hour range.",
        "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. Stop counts, connecting hubs, and per-airline prices are drawn from a large sample of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours. We group those fares by number of stops, by the hub airport a connection routes through, and by operating airline, and report each group's share of the sample alongside its lowest and median price.",
