        "answer": "Toronto Pearson and Vancouver International usually offer the most competitive fares and the highest frequency of direct flights to major Mexican destinations like Cancún, Mexico City, and Puerto Vallarta.

      "q6": {
        "question": "When is the cheapest time to fly from Canada to Mexico?",
        "answer": "For flights from Canada to Mexico, midweek departures — especially Tuesday through Thursday — tend to be the cheapest days to fly, while weekends and Mondays are pricier. Afternoon and late-night departures often offer the lowest fares. Avoid peak holiday periods like Christmas, New Year's, March Break, and Easter, when demand drives prices up on both sides of the border. Booking at least two to three months ahead typically yields better value.",
        "methodology": "The cheapest day of the week and time of day to depart are drawn from the same large sample of real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours, grouped by the day of the week and by the time-of-day window of the outbound departure, with the lowest and average price reported for each."
      },
      "q7": {
        "question": "How far in advance should I book flights from Canada to Mexico?",
        "answer": "For flights from Canada to Mexico, booking 6–10 weeks ahead is a practical window for long-haul international routes, though peak seasons like winter holidays and spring break often demand booking 12–16 weeks out to secure better fares and availability.",
        "methodology": "Stop counts, connecting hubs, and per-airline prices are drawn from a large sample of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours. We group those fares by number of stops, by the hub airport a connection routes through, and by operating airline, and report each group's share of the sample alongside its lowest and median price. The typical price, the lowest fare, a 'great deal' threshold, and how fares are spread across price bands are summarized from a large sample of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours, with a small fraction of extreme outlier fares excluded from the range."
      },
      "q8": {
        "question": "Do I need a visa to travel from Canada to Mexico?",
        "answer": "Canadian citizens do not need a visa for tourist visits to Mexico up to 180 days, but must hold a valid passport. Entry rules depend on nationality and purpose, so all travellers should confirm current requirements with Mexican authorities before departure."
      },
      "q10": {
        "question": "How easy is it to travel within Mexico after I arrive?",
        "answer": "Mexico has a well-developed domestic flight network connecting major cities and tourist areas. Buses are also extensive and comfortable for shorter to medium distances. Arriving in Mexico City offers the most onward connections, while Cancún serves the Yucatán Peninsula efficiently."
