Stop counts, connecting hubs, and per-airline prices are drawn from a large sample of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours. We group those fares by number of stops, by the hub airport a connection routes through, and by operating airline, and report each group's share of the sample alongside its lowest and median price. The typical price, the lowest fare, a 'great deal' threshold, and how fares are spread across price bands are summarized from a large sample of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours, with a small fraction of extreme outlier fares excluded from the range."}, "q10": {"question": "How easy is it to travel within Spain after I arrive?", "answer": "Spain has an excellent high-speed rail network connecting Madrid to cities like Barcelona, Seville, Valencia and Málaga.
