        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Mexico City to Toronto?",
        "answer": "The flight from Mexico City to Toronto covers about 2,020 miles. Nonstop flights typically take 4 hours and 50 minutes, while the return leg to Mexico City is about 5 hours and 10 minutes, about 20 minutes longer due to prevailing winds.",
        "methodology": "Flight times and distances come 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). The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time across all carriers on the route, computed the same way in both directions so the difference reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in method. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two airports, so the actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer.",

        "answer": "Yes, three airlines fly non-stop from Mexico City (MEX) to Toronto (YYZ): Air Canada (the low-fare leader, with a typical fare around $656), Aeromexico, and Flair Airlines. Air Canada and Aeromexico operate daily, while Flair flies on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. Together they offer about 100 weekly non-stop flights, with a typical flight time around 4 hours 50 minutes.",

We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a median fare is shown for a carrier, it reflects the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours. Carrier service, flight times and distances for this route come from our flight-schedule database, which draws on published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data, and observed operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We report the days of the week and the departure times each carrier operates. The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time, given both per carrier and across all carriers on the route; where a schedule does not publish an elapsed time, it is derived from the scheduled departure and arrival times converted to UTC. Outbound and return times are computed by the same method, so the difference between them is directly comparable and reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in derivation. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two specific airports named, so an actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer. Where shown, on-time departure and arrival rates and cancellation rates come from the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) Airline On-Time Performance dataset, which covers U.S. domestic routes only; where a typical fare is shown, it comes from the U.S. DOT Airline Origin and Destination Survey (DB1B), a quarterly 10% sample of tickets sold.",

Taxis and limos offer door-to-door service, and ride sharing is also available at the airport. Public transit buses (TTC, GO, MiWay, Brampton Transit) connect to the subway and suburbs, taking about 45 minutes to downtown via the 900 Express bus. Car rentals from Avis, Budget, Enterprise, Hertz, and others are on-site, and hotel shuttles serve nearby hotels. The UP Express train is the most-used and fastest choice for getting to the city center.",

Hamilton International Airport is farther out, handling low‑cost carriers and cargo."

        "question": "How do I get to Benito Juárez Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "From downtown Mexico City, the new Metrobús Line 4 “Quetzalcóatl” route is the most agile and reliable way to reach Benito Juárez International Airport, connecting from Amajac station near Paseo de la Reforma through the historic center to both Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 for a flat 30 pesos. The Mexico City Metro is a cheaper alternative at about 5 pesos per ride, though it requires a transfer and is less direct. Taxis and ride-share services are available but cost significantly more, and driving yourself is currently discouraged because airport parking capacity has been temporarily reduced due to remodeling. Overall, the Metrobús is the best choice for most travelers given the ongoing construction at the airport.",

Where the source does not commit to a specific variant we name the aircraft family (for example Airbus A320 family) rather than guess, and where no reliable type is on file the aircraft is omitted rather than estimated.
