        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Lagos to Accra?",
        "answer": "A nonstop flight from Lagos (LOS) to Accra (ACC) typically takes about 1 hour. The return flight also takes roughly 1 hour, with no significant time difference between directions."
      },
      "q1": {
        "question": "Are there any direct flights from Lagos to Accra?",
        "answer": "Yes, there are direct flights from Lagos to Accra. Five airlines operate non‑stop: Air Peace (P4), United Nigeria Airlines (UN), Air Côte d'Ivoire (HF), Ibom Air (QI), and Air Senegal (TC). Air Peace, United Nigeria Airlines, and Ibom Air fly daily; Air Côte d'Ivoire runs Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday; Air Senegal operates Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.",
        "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": "Are there visa requirements to travel from Lagos to Accra?",
        "answer": "Yes, visa requirements apply for travel between Lagos and Accra. Nigerian citizens do not need a visa to enter Ghana for short stays, thanks to ECOWAS free movement protocols, but must hold a valid passport and may be required to show proof of yellow fever vaccination. Ghanaian citizens also do not need a visa to enter Nigeria under ECOWAS rules. For other nationalities, a visa for Ghana or Nigeria may be required depending on citizenship; many can obtain a visa on arrival for Ghana, while Nigeria generally requires a visa obtained in advance unless from a visa-exempt country. Always check the latest entry rules before travel."

      "q6": {
        "question": "Are overnight (red‑eye) flights available from Lagos to Accra?",
        "answer": "No nonstop red‑eye flights operate from Lagos to Accra. One connecting itinerary with an overnight long leg exists: United Airlines departs Lagos at 23:55 and arrives at Washington Dulles (IAD) at 06:05 (early hours), then connects onward to Accra after a 12h35m layover — but this is a long transatlantic routing, not a practical regional overnight option.",
        "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.",

      "q9": {
        "question": "How reliable are on‑time departures on this route from Lagos to Accra?",
        "answer": "On-time performance can be inconsistent due to operational issues in Lagos. Early flights, particularly on Air Peace and Africa World Airlines, tend to have better punctuality."
      },
      "q10": {
        "question": "Which months have the best weather for traveling to Accra?",
        "answer": "November to March offers the most comfortable weather with lower humidity, less rain, and fewer tourists."
      },
      "q11": {
        "question": "What documents should I bring with me to the airport when flying from Lagos to Accra?",
        "answer": "Bring a passport valid for at least six months, a valid visa or Ghana's visa-free entry document if applicable, payment for baggage, and a yellow fever vaccination certificate. Proof of onward or return travel may be requested."
      },
      "q12": {
        "question": "Which airport should I use in Accra?",
        "answer": "Accra has only one airport, Kotoka International Airport, which serves all flights to the city."
      },
      "q14": {
        "question": "Are there hotels or sleeping facilities at Accra airport?",
        "answer": "Accra Airport (ACC) does not have on-site hotels, capsule hotels, or sleeping pods. The nearest hotels are a short drive away, with some offering free shuttle service. The airport itself offers limited seating for overnight rest, but no dedicated sleep facilities.",

The exact type varies by airline and day — Peace Air (P4) often uses the E190, while Africa World (AW) and Euroairlines/QI can deploy CRJ or ERJ equipment. Wi‑Fi and seatback entertainment are widely available on modern regional jets, though the specific fit‑out depends on the carrier.",
