Midweek days like Tuesday and Thursday are also more affordable than weekends, while Saturdays and Sundays are typically the priciest. Peak periods including Australian summer school holidays and major Thai festivals like Songkran see higher prices, so booking outside those windows and opting for late-night or early-morning flights usually yields the best value.",

Entry is visa-free upon arrival.\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.",

      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Brisbane Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "The Airtrain (T5 Brisbane Airport line) is the main public transport option, running every 15 minutes in peak periods and taking about 22 minutes from the city center to the airport. Shuttle buses are not a prominent option, while ride-share services like Uber and taxis offer door-to-door convenience at a higher cost than the train. Driving and parking at the airport is also available, with on-site parking managed by Brisbane Airport Corporation. The Airtrain is the most popular rail choice despite premium fares, while taxis and ride-share are often faster for groups or those with luggage.",
