      },
      "q5": {
        "question": "How far in advance should I book flights from San Francisco to Jamaica?",
        "answer": "For flights from San Francisco to Jamaica, the sweet spot is about 11 to 14 weeks ahead, when fares average around $700 — booking too late can push prices above $1,100.",
        "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."

      "q6": {
        "question": "What are the most popular cities to visit in Jamaica?",

      },
      "q7": {
        "question": "Do I need a visa to travel from San Francisco to Jamaica?",
        "answer": "U.S. citizens visiting Jamaica for tourism typically do not need a visa for stays up to 90 days. You will need a valid U.S. passport and proof of onward travel. Entry rules can change, so check official sources before departure."
      },
      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in Jamaica are best to fly into from San Francisco?",
        "answer": "From San Francisco to Jamaica, Montego Bay's Sangster International is the top choice for most travelers, offering the most direct and connecting flights and easy access to northwest coast resorts. Kingston's Norman Manley International is better for reaching the capital and the Blue Mountains, though it has fewer U.S. connections."
      },
      "q12": {
        "question": "When is the best time of year to visit Jamaica?",
        "answer": "For Jamaica, mid-November to mid-December offers a sweet spot of lower rainfall, pleasant temperatures and fewer crowds before the winter peak, while late April to early June also provides good weather with thinner crowds and better prices compared to the busy winter and summer seasons."
