        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Adelaide to Perth?",
        "answer": "The flight from Adelaide to Perth covers about 1,310 miles and typically takes 3 hours 20 minutes. The return leg is shorter at 2 hours 50 minutes due to prevailing winds. Qantas, Jetstar, and Virgin Australia all operate nonstop service on this route.",
        "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": "Are there any direct flights from Adelaide to Perth?",
        "answer": "Yes, Qantas, Virgin Australia, and Jetstar all fly non‑stop from Adelaide to Perth daily. Qantas offers the most frequent service with up to 13 departures a day, Virgin Australia runs about 8, and Jetstar around 9, so you have plenty of choices throughout the day. The flight typically takes around 3 hours and 15 minutes westbound and about 2 hours and 50 minutes on the return.",

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 median fare is shown for a carrier, it reflects the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours. Carrier service, flight times and distances for this route come from our flight-schedule database, which draws on published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data, and observed operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We report the days of the week and the departure times each carrier operates. The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time, given both per carrier and across all carriers on the route; where a schedule does not publish an elapsed time, it is derived from the scheduled departure and arrival times converted to UTC. Outbound and return times are computed by the same method, so the difference between them is directly comparable and reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in derivation. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two specific airports named, so an actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer. Where shown, on-time departure and arrival rates and cancellation rates come from the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) Airline On-Time Performance dataset, which covers U.S. domestic routes only; where a typical fare is shown, it comes from the U.S. DOT Airline Origin and Destination Survey (DB1B), a quarterly 10% sample of tickets sold.",

The train is the fastest and most-used option, with dedicated stations at both terminal precincts, while taxis take roughly 20 minutes and rideshare has dedicated pick-up bays. Car rentals are also available at the airport for those preferring to drive.",

      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Adelaide Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "Adelaide Airport is about 6 km west of the city center, and the main public transport option is the JetExpress bus (routes J1/J2), which runs frequently between the CBD and the airport, taking roughly 25–30 minutes and costing a standard MetroCARD fare. Taxis and ride-share services like Uber are available at designated ranks and are the fastest door-to-door choice, typically taking 15–20 minutes depending on traffic, though they are the priciest option. Driving is straightforward via Sir Donald Bradman Drive, with on-airport parking ranging from short-term to long-term lots, and the short-term car park is the most convenient but also the most expensive. For most travelers, the JetExpress bus is the most popular balance of cost and convenience, while ride-share or taxi is best if you’re in a hurry.",
