      "q5": {
        "question": "How far in advance should I book flights from Kathmandu to United States?",
        "answer": "For flights from Kathmandu to the United States, aim to book 14 to 16 weeks ahead — that's roughly 3½ to 4 months out — when fares typically bottom out around $1,489, though shoulder-season travelers can sometimes find good deals a bit closer in.",
        "methodology": "This booking-window guidance is built from the same real flight prices found by Priceline users searching this route, re-grouped by how many days before departure each price was seen (from the departure day out to about 180 days ahead) across the route's price history. At each booking lead time we report the 25th-percentile price — the cheaper end of what travelers were quoted, rather than the rock-bottom minimum (which can be a fluke) or the average (which is pulled up by expensive last-minute fares). The buy-or-wait advice then applies a risk premium that grows as departure approaches, since seat availability shrinks and prices become less predictable; using that adjusted curve we flag windows where waiting is likely to save a meaningful amount (at least $20 or 5%) versus windows where booking now is the better call. Isolated single-day recommendations are filtered out, so the advice only reflects a window that holds for several days in a row. For this route, fares for the requested travel direction were unavailable, so the pattern shown is derived from the reverse direction, which shares the same seasonal demand cycle."

      },
      "q7": {
        "question": "Do I need a visa to travel from Kathmandu to United States?",
        "answer": "Since you are a U.S. citizen, you do not need a visa to enter the United States regardless of where you travel from. Simply present your valid U.S. passport upon arrival. No electronic travel authorization is required for U.S. citizens."
      },
      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in United States are best to fly into from Kathmandu?",
        "answer": "From Kathmandu to the United States, most routes involve at least one connection. Major entry points include New York JFK and Los Angeles, which offer the most long-haul options and onward connections. Chicago O'Hare and San Francisco are also common hubs. For onward train travel, New York and Chicago provide good Amtrak access. For resort or regional travel, Denver or Las Vegas work well for the Rockies and Southwest, while Miami suits Florida beaches."
      },
      "q12": {
        "question": "When is the best time of year to visit United States?",
        "answer": "For the United States, late spring (April to June) and early autumn (September to October) offer mild weather and fewer crowds than the busy, expensive summer months. This varies by region, but generally these shoulder seasons provide a good balance of pleasant conditions and lower prices."
