        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Hermosillo to Mexico City?",
        "answer": "A nonstop flight from Hermosillo (HMO) to Mexico City (MEX) typically takes around 2 hours and 30 minutes. With a layover, total travel time is usually 4 to 6 hours, depending on the connection city. The return flight from Mexico City to Hermosillo is slightly shorter, often about 2 hours and 20 minutes nonstop."

        "question": "Are there any direct flights from Hermosillo to Mexico City?",
        "answer": "Nonstop flights from Hermosillo to Mexico City are available daily on Aeromexico, VivaAerobus, and Volaris. Aeromexico operates up to 183 weekly flights with departures throughout the day, while VivaAerobus offers 33 weekly flights and Volaris 14, both also daily.",
        "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.",

        "answer": "From downtown Hermosillo, the most popular way to reach General Ignacio P. Garcia Intl Airport is by taxi or ride‑share, which takes about 15–20 minutes and offers a convenient door‑to‑door service.
