      },
      "q4": {
        "question": "When is the cheapest time to fly from Shenzhen to Taiwan?",
        "answer": "On the Shenzhen–Taiwan route, the cheapest fares typically appear during the shoulder months of late spring (May) and early autumn (September–October), while peak summer and major holidays like Chinese New Year and Golden Week tend to be much more expensive. Midweek departures — especially Tuesday and Wednesday — and early-morning or late-evening flights usually offer the best value compared to weekend and midday travel.",
        "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."

        "question": "What are the most popular cities to visit in Taiwan?",

      },
      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in Taiwan are best to fly into from Shenzhen?",
        "answer": "From Shenzhen to Taiwan, the most practical airports are Taipei Taoyuan for international connections and high-speed rail access, Taipei Songshan for a more central Taipei arrival, and Kaohsiung for southern Taiwan. Since Shenzhen is in China, the question about U.S. flights does not apply, but these airports serve regional routes well."
      },
      "q12": {
        "question": "When is the best time of year to visit Taiwan?",
        "answer": "October to December and March to April offer comfortable temperatures, lower rainfall and lighter crowds in Taipei and throughout Taiwan, avoiding the hot, humid and peak‑priced summer months."
      },
      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Shenzhen Bao'an Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport, located about 32 km northwest of the city center, is best reached by the Shenzhen Metro Line 11, which stops directly at the Airport station beneath the terminal and connects to the city's wider network. There are also dedicated airport express buses from key urban hubs, along with regular city bus routes that serve the airport. Taxis and ride-share services are readily available and offer door-to-door convenience, while driving yourself is possible with onsite parking at the Ground Transportation Center, though traffic on the airport expressway can be heavy at peak times. The metro is generally the fastest and most popular option thanks to its dedicated airport line and predictable travel time, while taxis and ride-shares cost more but offer direct service.",
