        "question": "How reliable are on‑time departures on this route from Kuala Lumpur to Bangkok?",

        "question": "How do I get to Kuala Lumpur Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "The fastest and most popular way to reach Kuala Lumpur International Airport from the city center is the KLIA Ekspres train from KL Sentral, taking about 28 minutes nonstop. A slightly slower but cheaper option is the KLIA Transit train, which makes a few stops along the same route.
