        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Kuala Lumpur to Amritsar?",
        "answer": "The flight from Kuala Lumpur to Amritsar is about 2,660 miles and typically takes 5 hours 55 minutes. The return leg is 5 hours 50 minutes, so both directions are nearly the same.",
        "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.",

        "answer": "Taxis and ride-hailing services like Ola and Uber are readily available at Amritsar Airport, offering the fastest and most convenient way to reach the city center, about 11 km away. Auto rickshaws and local buses also connect the airport to the city, providing cheaper but slower alternatives. A dedicated Metrobus route (Route 501) used to link the airport directly to Amritsar Junction and the Golden Temple every 10–15 minutes, but it is currently not functional. For most travelers, app-based cabs are the most commonly used option due to their reliability and door-to-door service. Car rentals are not prominently mentioned at this airport, so taxis or ride-shares remain the default choice.",
