        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Lima to Los Angeles?",
        "answer": "The flight from Lima to Los Angeles is about 4,180 miles and typically takes around 9 hours nonstop. Flying back to Lima is faster at about 8 hours 5 minutes, a difference of 55 minutes 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.",

Ride-hailing services like Uber and Lyft, along with taxis, pick up at the LAX-it lot, and many rental car agencies operate from the consolidated Rental Car Center. The FlyAway bus and ride-hailing are the fastest and most-used options, while the Metro rail connection is the most economical.",

American Airlines offers a red-eye leg from Lima to Miami departing at 22:00 (arriving 04:56) or 23:45 (arriving 06:39), with a connection in Miami onward to Los Angeles. Avianca also has an overnight leg from San Salvador to Los Angeles departing at 23:20 and arriving at 06:05, connecting through San Salvador.",
        "methodology": "Red-eye flights are identified from scheduled local departure and arrival times in our flight-schedule database — built from published airline timetables and official schedule data, including U.S. Department of Transportation records for domestic routes — flagging services that depart late at night and arrive the following morning; for connecting itineraries the red-eye is based on the timing of the overnight long-haul leg.",

        "question": "Which airport should I use in Los Angeles?",
        "answer": "Los Angeles International is the primary airport for international flights and is closest to the coast. Hollywood Burbank offers a smaller, more convenient option for northern areas, while Long Beach and Ontario serve regional and low‑cost carriers with less congestion."
      },
      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Jorge Chávez Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "Reaching Jorge Chávez International Airport from downtown Lima is currently difficult because there is no highway, metro, or public bus service connecting to the new terminal; the only road access is via two temporary bridges that lack pedestrian walkways. Most travelers rely on taxis or ride-share services, which are the most popular and generally fastest option, though they cost more than public transit. Public transportation is not a practical choice for the airport at this time, and driving yourself offers limited parking near the new terminal. A future Metro Line 2 extension will eventually link the airport to the city, but it is not yet operational.",
