        "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.",

        "answer": "At Cancún International Airport (CUN), official ground transportation options include taxis, private shuttles, ride-hailing, car rentals, and an ADO bus service. The ADO bus is the only public mass-transit option, connecting the airport to downtown Cancún and beyond, and is popular among budget travelers. Pre-booked private transfers are widely used for their convenience and fixed rates, while authorized taxis are readily available at the terminals. Ride-hailing apps like Uber operate but may face pickup restrictions, so private shuttles remain the most common choice for direct hotel transfers. For the fastest door-to-door trip, a pre-arranged private van or taxi is best, while the ADO bus is the most-used public option.",
