        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Delhi to Indore?",
        "answer": "A nonstop flight from Delhi (DEL) to Indore (IDR) typically takes about 1 hour 30 minutes to 1 hour 40 minutes. Since this is a domestic route with frequent direct flights, layover options are uncommon and generally not recommended due to significantly longer travel times. The return flight duration is essentially the same."

        "question": "Are there any direct flights from Delhi to Indore?",
        "answer": "Yes, three airlines fly nonstop from Delhi to Indore: IndiGo (6E), Air India (AI), and Air India Express (IX), all operating daily. IndiGo offers the most frequency with eight daily departures, while Air India has four and Air India Express has three, for a combined 98 weekly nonstop flights. The flight takes about an hour and a half on aircraft like the Airbus A320 family.",
        "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. 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. Aircraft types are taken from the equipment each operating carrier schedules on this route, drawn from published airline timetables and airline equipment schedules in our flight-schedule database. They describe typical scheduled aircraft and can vary with seasonal or day-of-week assignments and last-minute equipment swaps.",
