        "question": "Are there any direct flights from Boston to Kigali?",
        "answer": "There are no nonstop flights from Boston to Kigali. The shortest one-stop routing is via Doha on Qatar Airways, with the long leg to Doha taking about 11h 45m and the onward leg to Kigali about 6h 10m, plus a layover of roughly 9 hours; total journey time is around 27 hours. Other one-stop options via London (British Airways / RwandAir) or Istanbul (Turkish Airlines) are also available but with fewer daily frequencies.",
        "methodology": "Airlines and weekly frequencies are compiled 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). 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.",

        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Kigali?",
        "answer": "Kigali International Airport is about 5 km east of the city center, and the most-used ground transport options are private taxis (known locally as 'special hire' or 'taxi voiture') and moto taxis, which are a very common and flexible way to get around Kigali. Express buses and share taxis (minibuses) are the backbone of public transport in Rwanda and run through the Nyabugogo bus station in Kigali, though they are better suited for intercity travel than a quick airport transfer. There is no rail network in Rwanda, and ride-share services are limited compared to local taxis and motos. For most visitors, a pre-arranged hotel shuttle or private taxi is the fastest and most reliable option, while moto taxis are the most widely used for short local trips.",

The Logan Express shuttle bus serves Back Bay and other suburbs, while ride-share services like Uber and Lyft, as well as taxis, provide direct door-to-terminal drop-off. Driving and parking are available with Central Parking closest to the terminals and Economy Parking offering lower rates with a free shuttle. The Silver Line is the most popular and affordable option, while a taxi or ride-share is the fastest but relatively more expensive.",
