        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Bogotá?",
        "answer": "Ground transportation options from El Dorado International Airport (BOG) to Bogotá's city center include taxis, ride-share services, car rentals, and the TransMilenio bus rapid transit system. Taxis are widely available and generally considered the fastest and most convenient option, though fares should be agreed upon or metered; ride-share services like Uber and Cabify also operate and are popular with visitors. The TransMilenio offers an affordable mass transit alternative with dedicated lanes, but it can be crowded during peak hours and may require a feeder bus from the airport. Car rental facilities are present at Terminal 1, though driving in Bogotá is often discouraged due to heavy traffic and complex road rules. Taxis and ride-share services are the most used by travelers for airport transfers, with taxis being the most common overall.",

        "question": "Are overnight (red‑eye) flights available from Houston to Bogotá?",
        "answer": "No nonstop red-eye flights operate from Houston (HOU) to Bogotá (BOG), but connecting itineraries whose long leg is an overnight red-eye are available. For example, Avianca runs a red-eye from Orlando (MCO) to Bogotá departing at 11:40 PM and arriving at 2:45 AM (early hours), connecting via a United flight from Houston with about a 1h30m layover; another Avianca red-eye departs San Salvador (SAL) at 10:05 PM arriving Bogotá at 2:00 AM (early hours), with an Avianca connection and a 2h25m layover; and a third Avianca red-eye leaves Mexico City (MEX) at 11:20 PM arriving Bogotá at 4:55 AM (early morning), with a United connection and a longer 5h30m layover. Air Canada also offers a red-eye from Montreal (YUL) departing at 10:55 PM and arriving Bogotá at 4:05 AM (early morning), with an Air Canada connection and a 7h55m layover.",
        "methodology": "Red-eye flights are identified from scheduled local departure and arrival times in our flight-schedule database — built from published airline timetables and official schedule data, including U.S. Department of Transportation records for domestic routes — flagging services that depart late at night and arrive the following morning; for connecting itineraries the red-eye is based on the timing of the overnight long-haul leg.",

        "answer": "Common layovers include Miami, Panama City, Mexico City and Fort Lauderdale, offering competitive total travel times and efficient connections. Miami provides extensive Latin American links, Panama City offers a central hub with streamlined transfers, and Mexico City gives broad coverage with visa‑free transit for many nationalities."

        "question": "How do I get to William P Hobby Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "From downtown Houston, the fastest and most popular option to William P. Hobby Airport is the METRO Bus 500, which runs nonstop to and from the George R. Brown Convention Center every 30 minutes for $4.50 one way, operating daily from 5:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. Alternatively, METRO Bus 40 provides slower local service along the same corridor, and shared shuttles, taxis, ride-share apps, and rental cars are all available at curbside pickup zones, with shuttles departing from Curb Zone 3 and taxis/ride-shares from designated areas. Driving yourself is also straightforward, as the airport is about 7 miles from the city center and offers on-site parking with discounts for booking in advance.",

For U.S. routes the type is grounded in the tail number that actually operated the flight; elsewhere it comes from the airline's filed equipment code. 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.",
