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

        "question": "Which airport should I use in Dubai?",
        "answer": "Dubai International is the primary airport, located close to the city centre, and serves most international airlines including Emirates. Al Maktoum International at Dubai World Central is farther south, mainly used by some low‑cost and cargo carriers, and is less convenient for central Dubai."
      },
      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Kuala Lumpur Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "The fastest and most popular option is the KLIA Ekspres train from KL Sentral, taking 28 minutes nonstop; the KLIA Transit also runs the same route with a few extra stops. Airport shuttle buses and public buses are cheaper but much slower due to traffic. Taxis and ride‑share (Grab) offer door‑to‑door convenience at a moderate cost, while driving and parking at the airport is possible but expensive for longer trips.",
