// FAQs
const BUCKET_FAQS = [
  { q: "Is now the right time?", a: "Almost certainly yes — but define 'right.' If you mean financially ready: close enough is close enough; waiting for 'fully ready' has cost more people their trip than undersaving has. If you mean physically: this is the more pressing variable. Kilimanjaro, the Inca Trail, and Antarctic expedition landings all have fitness requirements that narrow with age. The window is real." },
  { q: "Is it worth the price?", a: "The trips on this page are expensive. They are also, by consistent report from people who have done them, among the least regretted spending of their lives. The frame isn't 'is this worth $8,000.' The frame is: in ten years, will you be glad you went, or will you be glad you saved the money? We have never met a person who came back from Antarctica and said it wasn't worth it." },
  { q: "Can I do this on points?", a: "Partially. Business-class flights to Peru, Japan, or Jordan are the most achievable redemptions — often $5,000–$9,000 per seat covered by 100k–150k points. Hotel nights in Cusco and Kyoto redeem well. The parts you can't cover: Galápagos live-aboards, Bhutan daily fees, Antarctic ship berths, guide fees, and park permits. Budget the cash components first, then layer points on flights. We have a full guide above." },
  { q: "What fitness is required for the Inca Trail or Kilimanjaro?", a: "The Inca Trail: 26 miles over four days with a high point of 13,780 feet. You should be able to hike 8–10 miles with a day pack on a normal weekend. Six months of weekly hikes is adequate prep. Kilimanjaro Lemosho: 7–8 days, summit at 19,341 feet. Cardio base matters more than strength. Neither requires technical mountaineering. Both require taking the altitude seriously — which means choosing longer routes with better acclimatization profiles." },
  { q: "When exactly is cherry blossom season, and how far ahead do I book?", a: "Tokyo and Kyoto peak: roughly March 25 – April 5, varying 7–10 days year to year. The Japan Meteorological Corporation publishes a forecast in late January. You should have flights and hotels already. Cherry blossom season is among the most in-demand travel windows in the world — accommodation in central Kyoto books out nine months out. If you wait for the forecast, you are booking the last rooms at triple the price. Book in August for the following spring." },
  { q: "How far ahead do I need to book a bucket-list trip?", a: "Antarctica: 12–24 months. Popular Galápagos live-aboards: 12–18 months. The Inca Trail permit: exactly the date they open (October 1 for the following year — they sell out in hours). Japan cherry blossom accommodation: 8–12 months. Bhutan: 3–6 months for availability; longer if you want a specific guide. Jordan and Iceland: 3–6 months is sufficient outside peak season. The common error is planning the trip in detail, then waiting to book. The planning and the booking should happen simultaneously." },
];

// Practical brief
const BUCKET_PRACTICAL = [
  { k: "Booking tip", h: "Plan and book simultaneously.", b: "Every bucket-list trip has a booking constraint: a permit window, a ship berth limit, a peak season that fills fast. Decide to go, then book the constrained element the same week. Research comes after the reservation is made — not before." },
  { k: "Money tip", h: "Build the number, then find it.", b: "Write down the full cost of the trip before you start compromising. Then find the money — sell something, defer something else, use points for flights. The version of the trip where you've cut the right corners is worse than the version you planned." },
  { k: "Fitness tip", h: "Start twelve months before departure.", b: "Not for vanity. For altitude, for days-on-your-feet, for the summit push at 4 a.m. when you've had no sleep. The Inca Trail at adequate fitness is one of the best experiences of your life. At poor fitness, it is a survival story you won't enjoy telling." },
  { k: "Guide tip", h: "Local, specialist, small group.", b: "The guide on your Galápagos live-aboard or your Kilimanjaro team shapes the trip more than any other single variable. Budget for the best guide available. The reviews that say 'changed my life' are not about the landscape — they are about the person who helped you understand it." },
  { k: "Insurance tip", h: "Medical evacuation, not just trip interruption.", b: "Antarctica and high-altitude treks require medical evacuation coverage. Not the standard travel insurance policy — specific medevac coverage with a helicopter evacuation clause. The cost is $150–$400. The evacuation, if needed, is $80,000." },
  { k: "Timing tip", h: "Book the narrow windows as fact.", b: "Cherry blossom peak, the Inca Trail permit window, Naadam dates — treat these like flight times, not preferences. The trip is built around them. Everything else is flexible; these are not." },
