        "question": "From which cities in United States can I fly to Montevideo?",
        "answer": "Miami (MIA) is the only U.S. city with nonstop service to Montevideo, with American Airlines operating about 7 flights per week and a typical flight time around 9 hours 15 minutes. For travelers elsewhere in the country, one-stop connections are common via major hubs like Miami itself, or through other Latin American gateways such as Panama City (PTY) with Copa Airlines or São Paulo (GRU) with LATAM. Choosing a departure city often comes down to proximity — those in the Southeast can easily connect through Miami, while travelers from the West Coast or Northeast may find efficient one-stop routings through Panama or São Paulo that minimize total travel time.",
        "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.",
