        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Mumbai to Toronto?",
        "answer": "Mumbai to Toronto is about 7,760 miles. Since no nonstop flights are scheduled on this route, the journey requires at least one connection, with a typical total travel time of roughly 18 to 22 hours depending on layover duration and routing.",
        "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": "Toronto Pearson (YYZ) is connected to downtown Toronto by the Union Pearson Express train, which reaches Union Station in just 25 minutes and is the fastest and most-used option. Taxis and limos are available for direct door-to-door rides, and ride-sharing services now operate at the airport. Public transit is also strong: TTC express buses link to the subway (about 45 minutes to downtown), with overnight routes running, while GO Transit buses serve the suburbs. On-site car rentals include Avis/Budget, Dollar/Thrifty, Enterprise, Hertz, and National/Alamo, plus car-sharing options. Overall, the UP Express train is the best balance of speed and convenience for reaching the city center.",

Other carriers offering one-stop service include Etihad via Abu Dhabi, Emirates via Dubai, Air France via Paris, Qatar Airways via Doha, Lufthansa via Frankfurt, KLM via Amsterdam, British Airways via London, SAS via Copenhagen, and Cathay Pacific via Hong Kong.",

      "q12": {
        "question": "Which airport should I use in Toronto?",
        "answer": "Toronto Pearson is the primary international airport, located about 22 km northwest of downtown. Billy Bishop Airport is on the Toronto Islands, much closer to downtown, but primarily serves domestic and US flights. For international arrivals from Mumbai, you will land at Pearson."

        "question": "How do I get to Chhatrapati Shivaji Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "To reach Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport from downtown Mumbai, the fastest and most popular option is a taxi or app-based cab like Uber or Ola, which offers door-to-door service and is moderately priced compared to other choices. Public transportation is available via Mumbai's suburban rail network with nearby stations at Vile Parle (for the domestic terminal) and Andheri (for the international terminal), as well as BEST city buses and the Mumbai Metro with stations at CSMIA Airport T2 and T1. Auto rickshaws provide a cheaper, metered ride but only operate within the suburbs, not the city center. Driving yourself is possible with paid parking at both terminals, though traffic congestion can make this slower and less predictable than rail or ride-share.",
