        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Cali to Fort Lauderdale?",
        "answer": "The flight distance from Cali to Fort Lauderdale is about 1,580 miles. Since there are no scheduled nonstop flights on this route, a connection is required, and total journey time is typically around 7 to 10 hours depending on the layover.",
        "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.",

The Tri-Rail commuter train serves the region, with free shuttle buses from the terminals to the nearby station at Dania Beach. A Rental Car Center next to Terminal 1 houses 12 rental car companies, including Avis, Hertz, Enterprise, and Budget, many open 24/7. Ride share and taxi services are also available at the airport's ground transportation areas. The most-used option for visitors is typically ride share or taxi for direct door-to-door service, while the bus and Tri-Rail are the most economical public transit choices.",

Panama City’s Tocumen Airport provides efficient transfers and a hub for Copa Airlines, often keeping total travel time competitive. Miami serves as a major gateway with numerous flights to Fort Lauderdale, though it may require a short separate ticket or ground transfer."

      },
      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Alfonso Bonilla Aragon Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "From downtown Cali, the most popular and fastest way to reach Alfonso Bonilla Aragón International Airport is by taxi or ride-share, which takes roughly 30–45 minutes depending on traffic and costs more than public transit. Public buses (such as the 'Aeropuerto' route or local blue buses from the Terminal de Transportes) are much cheaper but slower and less direct, usually requiring a transfer. Shuttle services offered by some hotels and private companies provide a middle-ground option in cost and convenience. Driving yourself is possible with on-site parking, but finding a spot and navigating Cali traffic can be stressful, so most travelers prefer a taxi or app-based ride.",
