        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Atlanta to Santo Domingo?",
        "answer": "The flight from Atlanta to Santo Domingo is about 1,390 miles and typically takes 3 hours and 21 minutes nonstop. The return leg is longer, at about 3 hours and 46 minutes, because of prevailing winds. Delta and Frontier both serve the route nonstop.",
        "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 Santo Domingo?",
        "answer": "From Las Américas International Airport (SDQ) to central Santo Domingo, taxis are the fastest and most widely used option, especially for visitors, though fares should be agreed upon or use official airport taxi counters. Ride-sharing services like Uber operate in Santo Domingo and offer a convenient alternative, while car rentals are available at the airport for those wanting flexibility, though driving in the city can be challenging. Public buses and shared vans (guaguas) provide the cheapest mass transit but are less comfortable and not ideal with luggage. The Santo Domingo Metro is a reliable and modern system for getting around the city center once you arrive, but it does not directly serve the airport. For most travelers, a taxi or ride-share is the best balance of speed, safety, and convenience.",

Ride-share services like Uber and Lyft are authorized for pick-up, offering door-to-door convenience at a higher cost, while taxis have a set rate structure to the business district.

Where the source does not commit to a specific variant we name the aircraft family (for example Airbus A320 family) rather than guess, and where no reliable type is on file the aircraft is omitted rather than estimated. Types describe typical scheduled equipment and can vary with seasonal or day-of-week assignments and last-minute swaps.",
