        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Mumbai to Detroit?",
        "answer": "There is no scheduled nonstop service between Mumbai and Detroit, so the flight requires at least one connection. The route is about 7,940 miles. With a layover, the total journey time is typically around 20 to 24 hours.",
        "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 Detroit?",
        "answer": "At Detroit Metropolitan Airport (DTW), the fastest and most-used way to downtown Detroit is the Detroit Air Xpress (DAX) bus, which runs daily from 3:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. and costs $8 on board or $6 in advance. SMART's FAST Michigan Route 261 offers a high-frequency limited-stop option, while regular SMART routes 125 and 280 provide lower-cost local service. Ride-share services like Uber and Lyft, taxis, and on-airport rental cars from Alamo, Avis, Budget, Enterprise, Hertz, National, and others are also available, with rental cars being a popular choice for exploring the wider metro area. For most travelers heading to the city center, the DAX bus is the most heavily used because of its direct routing and low fare.",

        "question": "How do I get to Chhatrapati Shivaji Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "From downtown Mumbai, you can reach Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport by suburban train (the nearest stations are Vile Parle East for the domestic terminal and Andheri East for the international terminal), by Mumbai Metro (nearest stations include CSMIA Airport T2, CSMIA Airport T1, Marol Naka, and Sahar Road), by BEST public buses (Route 312 to Vile Parle, Route 321 to the international terminal, Route 308 to Andheri), by metered auto rickshaws in suburban areas, or by prepaid taxis, app-based cabs, and car rentals. The fastest and most popular options are typically app-based cabs or prepaid taxis, which offer direct door-to-door service, while trains and the metro are the most economical. On-site parking is available at both terminals, with about 1,500 slots at the international terminal, though driving yourself is generally slower due to Mumbai traffic.",

The Travel Club Lounge offers a paid, 24-hour experience with a buffet, bar, Wi-Fi, and workspaces, while the Aviserv Lounge adds sleeping pods, business centers, and conference facilities. Access is generally limited to about three hours before departure, and major credit card programs like Priority Pass, Amex India, and DragonPass are accepted at certain locations. The Centurion Lounge in Terminal 2 Domestic is currently listed as temporarily closed, so it may not be available.
