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.",

        "methodology": "Red-eye flights are identified from scheduled local departure and arrival times in our flight-schedule database — built from published airline timetables and official schedule data, including U.S. Department of Transportation records for domestic routes — flagging services that depart late at night and arrive the following morning; for connecting itineraries the red-eye is based on the timing of the overnight long-haul leg.",

        "question": "Which airport should I use in Daegu?",
        "answer": "Daegu has only one airport, Daegu International Airport, which serves both domestic and limited international flights and is located just east of the city center."
      },
      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Da Nang Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "From downtown Da Nang, you can reach the airport by public bus, taxi, or ride‑share; buses are the cheapest, while taxis and Grab are the fastest and most popular for door‑to‑door convenience. A public bus ride takes about 15–25 minutes depending on traffic, and taxis or ride‑shares typically take 10–15 minutes. Driving yourself is an option, but parking at the airport is limited and can be more expensive than a short taxi ride.",
