        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Delhi to Ahmedabad?",
        "answer": "A nonstop flight from Delhi (DEL) to Ahmedabad (AMD) typically takes about 1 hour 30 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes. Flights with layovers, often via Mumbai or Jaipur, can extend total travel time to 4–6 hours or more depending on the connection. Return flights are similar in duration, and airlines like IndiGo and Air India offer competitive nonstop times."
      },
      "q1": {
        "question": "Are there any direct flights from Delhi to Ahmedabad?",
        "answer": "Yes, there are plenty of non‑stop flights from Delhi to Ahmedabad. Four airlines — IndiGo (6E), Air India (AI), Akasa Air (QP), and SpiceJet (SG) — operate daily service, with IndiGo alone offering about 125 weekly departures. Collectively there are over 200 non‑stop flights each week, departing at all hours from early morning to late night.",
        "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.",

        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Ahmedabad?",
        "answer": "Ahmedabad Airport (AMD) is about 5 miles (8 km) northeast of the city center. Prepaid taxis and app-based ride services like Uber and Ola are readily available and are the most popular and convenient ways to reach the city. A dedicated bus rapid transit (BRT) stop is located near the airport, offering an economical mass transit option. Car rentals are present but less commonly used for simple city transfers. The taxi or ride-share is typically the fastest and most-used choice, taking roughly 20–30 minutes depending on traffic.",

        "answer": "Yes, overnight red-eye flights are available nonstop from Delhi to Ahmedabad. IndiGo operates three late-evening departures daily (around 9:00 PM, 10:10 PM, and 11:10 PM), while Air India and Akasa Air each have daily red-eyes departing around 10:30 PM and 11:10 PM. These flights are short — typically under two hours — so they land well before midnight the same evening.",
        "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.",
