        "question": "Which cities in Maryland can I fly to directly or with one stop from Miami?",
        "answer": "From Miami you can fly non-stop to Baltimore/Washington International, the main airport for Maryland.

        "answer": "For flights from Miami to Maryland, book 4 to 8 weeks ahead for the best balance of price and availability, though for peak winter holiday and spring break travel, aim for 10 to 12 weeks out, while you can often book closer in during shoulder seasons like late spring and fall."

      "q6": {
        "question": "What are the most popular areas to visit in Maryland and how does that affect where I should fly?",
        "answer": "In Maryland, Baltimore draws visitors for its Inner Harbor and museums, Annapolis for maritime history and the U.S. Naval Academy, and the Eastern Shore for beaches and small towns. Baltimore-Washington International is the main airport for Baltimore and Annapolis, while Salisbury-Ocean City Wicomico Regional serves the Eastern Shore. Flying into BWI is best for city and bay attractions, but if you are beach-bound, Salisbury gets you closer with fewer connections and longer travel times."
      },
      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in Maryland are best to fly into from Miami?",
        "answer": "Baltimore/Washington International is the main airport for most of Maryland and has the most flights from Miami. Reagan National and Dulles, while in Virginia, are close to the DC suburbs and offer alternatives. For the Eastern Shore or western Maryland, consider smaller regional airports like Salisbury, but they have limited service and often require a connection."
