        "question": "From which cities in United States can I fly to Phoenix?",
        "answer": "There are nonstop flights to Phoenix from over 100 US cities, with the busiest being Denver, Los Angeles, Chicago, Seattle, and Las Vegas, offering hundreds of weekly flights on carriers like Southwest, American, United, Delta, and Frontier. Travellers typically choose a departure city based on proximity and flight frequency, with major hubs providing the most options and often lower fares, while smaller cities may require a connection through a hub like Denver or Dallas. For those without a direct flight, common one-stop itineraries route through these large connecting hubs within the US, though nonstop service is widely available from most regions.",
        "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.",
