        "question": "From which cities in United States can I fly to San José del Cabo?",
        "answer": "You can fly nonstop to San José del Cabo from 28 U.S. cities, with the most frequent departures from Dallas (DFW), Phoenix (PHX), Los Angeles (LAX), Chicago (ORD), and San Francisco (SFO). Other major gateways include San Diego, Seattle, Denver, New York (JFK), Houston (HOU and IAH), Atlanta, Salt Lake City, Austin, and many more, with typical flight times ranging from just over 2 hours from Phoenix to about 6 hours from New York. For travelers not near a nonstop gateway, one-stop connections are widely available through hub cities like Dallas, Phoenix, Los Angeles, or Houston on airlines such as American, Southwest, United, and Delta. Most travelers choose a departure city based on proximity and airline preference, with West Coast airports offering the shortest flights and the most daily options.",
        "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.",
