        "question": "From which cities in United States can I fly to Lima?",
        "answer": "Nonstop flights to Lima depart from five US cities: Miami, New York (JFK), Los Angeles, Atlanta, and Houston. Miami offers the most frequent service with up to 219 weekly flights on LATAM, Sky Airline, and American Airlines, making it the primary gateway. Travelers typically choose a departure city based on proximity and flight availability, with Miami and New York serving the East Coast, Los Angeles for the West, and Atlanta and Houston providing central US connections; one-stop itineraries via these hubs or other major US cities are also common for those not near a nonstop gateway.",
        "methodology": "The US departure cities with nonstop service to this destination, their weekly flight frequencies, typical flight times, airlines, and red-eye availability 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 identify every US airport with scheduled nonstop service to the destination, group them into their metropolitan areas, and rank the cities by scheduled weekly departures; the typical flight time is the median scheduled duration, and red-eye availability is flagged from scheduled local departure and arrival times.",
