        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Washington to Amman?",
        "answer": "The flight from Washington, D.C. (IAD) to Amman (AMM) is about 5,950 miles. The typical nonstop duration is 11 hours and 5 minutes outbound, while the return leg takes 12 hours and 15 minutes — about 70 minutes longer due to prevailing winds. Royal Jordanian operates the route four days a week with evening departures.",
        "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": "Royal Jordanian operates non‑stop flights from Washington Dulles (IAD) to Amman (AMM) four days a week — on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays — with evening departures around 8:30–9:30 PM. The flight covers roughly 5,950 miles and takes about 11 hours eastbound. No other airline flies this route non‑stop.",
        "methodology": "Airlines and weekly frequencies are compiled 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). 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. 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.",

Entry is available through an eVisa obtained online before travel or a visa on arrival at the border.\n\nThis is general guidance to help you plan, not official immigration advice — entry rules can change and can depend on your nationality and circumstances, so please confirm the current requirements with the relevant embassy or official government source before you travel.",

Taxis and ride-share services are available and are the most commonly used option for getting from the airport to the city center, as they offer the most direct and reliable door-to-door service. Car rentals are also available at the airport for travelers who want their own vehicle. There is no rail link from Queen Alia International Airport to central Amman.",

        "answer": "From downtown Washington, the Silver Line Metrorail provides direct service to Dulles Airport, with the station connected to the terminal by an indoor pedestrian tunnel with moving sidewalks. Ride-share services like Uber and Lyft, as well as taxis, are widely used and offer door-to-door convenience, while driving is also an option with on-site parking garages. The Metrorail is often the most economical and reliable choice during rush hour, though ride-share or taxi is typically faster and more popular for travelers with luggage. Shuttle buses are less common for city-center departures but may be available from select hotels or suburban locations.",
