      "q4": {
        "question": "When is the cheapest time to fly from Beijing to Taiwan?",
        "answer": "For the Beijing to Taiwan route, the cheapest months to fly are typically during the shoulder seasons, like April–May and September–October, when demand drops after the summer peak and major holidays. Midweek departures, especially Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and early-morning or late-night flights tend to offer lower fares. Peak summer (July–August) and Chinese New Year are usually the most expensive times to travel.",
        "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. 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": "Which airports in Taiwan are best to fly into from Beijing?",
        "answer": "From Beijing to Taiwan, Taipei Taoyuan is the primary gateway with the most international connections and high-speed rail to other cities. Taipei Songshan offers a central location for the capital and domestic flights, while Kaohsiung is convenient for southern Taiwan. Taichung handles some regional routes but has fewer options."
      },
      "q12": {
        "question": "When is the best time of year to visit Taiwan?",
        "answer": "For Taiwan, aim for October to December or March to April. Summer is hot, humid and prone to typhoons. Spring and autumn offer comfortable weather and fewer crowds in Taipei and other popular spots."
      },
      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Beijing Capital Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "From downtown Beijing to Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK), the Capital Airport Express subway line is the most popular and fastest option, connecting Beixinqiao, Dongzhimen, and Sanyuanqiao to Terminals 2 and 3 with a flat fare of ¥25. Airport shuttle buses offer a cheaper alternative, with five routes serving various city areas and one-way fares of ¥20 to ¥55. Taxis and ride-share services are available for door-to-door convenience but cost more and can be slowed by traffic. Driving is possible with airport parking, though it is the least practical for most travelers given congestion and parking fees.",
