        "question": "When is the cheapest time to fly from Larnaca to Israel?",
        "answer": "The cheapest day to fly from Larnaca to Israel is Wednesday, while Friday tends to be the most expensive; midweek departures generally offer lower fares than weekends. Late-night flights are typically the most affordable time of day, with early morning and morning departures also priced competitively. Peak summer months and major holidays usually drive prices higher, so traveling outside those periods and booking well in advance will help secure better fares.",
        "methodology": "The cheapest day of the week and time of day to depart are drawn from the same large sample of real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours, grouped by the day of the week and by the time-of-day window of the outbound departure, with the lowest and average price reported for each."

        "question": "How far in advance should I book flights from Larnaca to Israel?",
        "answer": "For flights from Larnaca to Tel Aviv, booking about 4 to 8 weeks ahead typically secures the best fares, though this short-haul route often has reasonable last-minute availability outside of major holidays.",
        "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. 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."
