As you can see from the above segments array ( you can get that from directions object ), it has 1 stop between ADD to CAI & CAI to WAS. So to calculate the transit time the passenger stays in CAI before leaving to WAS, you can use momentjs library.

You can use this :

const tripStopAt = moment(segment[0].arrival)  _// Time the plane lands in CAI coming from ADD_ 
const tripContinueAt = moment(segment[1].departure) _// Time the plane departs CAI to WAS_

const duration = moment.duration(tripContinueAt.diff(tripStopAt)); 
const hours = duration.asHours(); 

Now, you have the number of hours ( Transit Time ). You can modify it as per your need.
