        "question": "When is the cheapest time to fly from Hong Kong to Malaysia?",
        "answer": "Flights from Hong Kong to Kuala Lumpur are generally cheapest outside of peak summer and major holidays like Chinese New Year and Christmas, with lower fares more common on midweek departures — especially Tuesdays and Wednesdays — and on early-morning or late-night flights. Booking roughly two to three months ahead tends to lock in better prices, while last-minute bookings within two weeks of travel are usually the most expensive.",
        "methodology": "Stop counts, connecting hubs, and per-airline prices are drawn from a large sample of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours. We group those fares by number of stops, by the hub airport a connection routes through, and by operating airline, and report each group's share of the sample alongside its lowest and median price. 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. The typical price, the lowest fare, a 'great deal' threshold, and how fares are spread across price bands are summarized from a large sample of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours, with a small fraction of extreme outlier fares excluded from the range."
