        "answer": "Midweek flights, especially on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, tend to be the cheapest days to fly from London to Dublin, while Sundays are generally the priciest. Early morning departures offer the lowest fares, so booking a Tuesday or Wednesday morning flight is your best bet for savings, though be mindful of price spikes around UK and Irish bank holidays and school breaks.",
        "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 United Kingdom to Ireland?",
        "answer": "For flights from London to Dublin, booking 2 to 4 weeks ahead typically secures a good fare, with early morning departures on Tuesdays often being cheapest; however, during peak summer months and around major holidays like Christmas or St. Patrick's Day, booking 6 to 8 weeks out is advisable to avoid price surges.",
        "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 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. 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."
