        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Albuquerque to Tokyo?",
        "answer": "There is no scheduled nonstop service between Albuquerque and Tokyo, so a connection is required. The straight-line distance is about 5,920 miles, and a typical one-stop journey often takes 14 to 17 hours total, depending on the connection.",
        "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.",

        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Tokyo?",
        "answer": "From Tokyo Narita International Airport, the fastest and most-used way into central Tokyo is the fixed-fare taxi system, which charges a flat rate by zone—typically ¥28,000–¥38,500 plus expressway tolls to reach areas like Shinjuku, Shibuya, or Ginza. Extensive direct highway buses also serve most Tokyo districts and key hubs such as Tokyo Station, Shinjuku, Ikebukuro, and Shibuya, with low-cost bus fares from ¥1,500 to ¥2,500, making them the practical budget choice. Free terminal shuttle buses connect Narita's three terminals every few minutes. Car rental is not a prominent option for airport-to-city transfers given the efficient taxi and bus network.",

American Airlines is the dominant carrier, routing via Dallas/Fort Worth (about 14 daily departures) and Los Angeles (about 6 daily), with additional connections through New York JFK. Japan Airlines also offers one-stop itineraries via Dallas/Fort Worth and Los Angeles in partnership with American. United connects via Denver (about 4 daily), Alaska Airlines via Seattle (about 2 daily), and ANA via Seattle.",

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 typical fare is shown for a carrier, it is the median of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.",

        "question": "Which airport should I use in Tokyo?",
        "answer": "Tokyo has two main airports. Narita handles most long-haul international flights and is about 60 km east of central Tokyo. Haneda is much closer to downtown, serves many domestic routes and an increasing number of international flights, and is often preferred for business travel."

      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Albuquerque Intl Sunport from the city center?",
        "answer": "From downtown Albuquerque, the most direct public transportation option is ABQ Ride's Route 50 bus, which stops at the Sunport on weekdays and Saturdays; the weekday Route 250 is temporarily suspended. Ride-share services like Uber and Lyft, along with several local taxi companies (ABQ Metro Taxi, Green Cab, zTrip), offer door-to-door convenience and are generally the fastest and most popular choice. Driving is straightforward with on-site parking, and the airport's Rental Car Center is accessible via a free 24/7 shuttle from the terminal. The public bus is the most budget-friendly, while taxis and ride-shares are more expensive but quicker.",
