        "question": "What is the typical flight duration from Mexico City to Miami?",
        "answer": "The flight from Mexico City to Miami is about 1,270 miles and typically takes 3 hours 24 minutes nonstop. The return from Miami to Mexico City is longer at 3 hours 43 minutes due to prevailing winds. American, Aeromexico, and Volaris all operate daily 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 Mexico City to Miami?",
        "answer": "Yes, nonstop flights from Mexico City to Miami are available daily on American Airlines, Aeromexico, and Volaris. Together they offer over 230 weekly flights, with departures spread throughout the day from early morning to evening. The flight takes about 3 hours 20 minutes on average.",
        "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.",

Rental cars are available at the Rental Car Center, reached by the MIA Mover, and Tri-Rail commuter rail links to Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach. The Metrorail is the most-used public transit option for getting downtown, while taxis and ride-shares are the fastest door-to-door choice, typically taking 15–20 minutes depending on traffic.",

For example, Avianca offers an overnight leg from Mexico City to Bogotá departing at 23:20 and arriving at 04:55, connecting onward to Miami, and another Avianca option routes via San Salvador with the overnight leg departing at 22:10 and arriving at 02:50. American Airlines also offers connections via Phoenix with overnight legs departing at 22:20 (arriving 05:42) or 23:35 (arriving 06:59), while Frontier connects via Denver with a 22:49 departure arriving at 04:52.",
        "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": "Miami International is the primary airport serving the city, located about 8 miles west of downtown and close to attractions like South Beach. It is a major hub for American Airlines and serves numerous international and domestic carriers across all alliances, handling both business and leisure travel. Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International is about 30 miles north and often used by low-cost carriers and travelers heading to northern parts of the metro area."

      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Benito Juárez Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "The most practical public option is the Metrobús Line 4 'Quetzalcóatl' route, which runs from the city center via Amajac station on Paseo de la Reforma directly to Terminals 1 and 2 for 30 pesos, and is currently the most agile and accessible choice during airport remodeling. The Mexico City Metro is also available and extremely cheap at 5 pesos per trip, though you'll need to transfer to a bus or taxi for the final stretch. Ride-share and taxis offer door-to-door convenience at a much higher cost, while driving is discouraged right now because parking capacity has been temporarily reduced due to construction.",
