        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Phnom Penh?",
        "answer": "From Techo International Airport (KTI), located about 19 km south of Phnom Penh, the most popular way into the city is via ride-hailing apps like Grab or PassApp, which offer cars and tuk-tuks. Metered taxis and unregulated motorcycle taxis are also available, though ride-hailing is generally more convenient and widely used. Public buses do not directly serve the new airport yet, and the former airport rail shuttle ceased operations in 2020. Road-based transport is the primary means of getting around.",

        "answer": "The most popular and often fastest way to reach LAX from downtown Los Angeles is by ride‑share or taxi, which offer door‑to‑terminal convenience but are the priciest options. For a budget‑friendly choice, the FlyAway bus runs nonstop from Union Station to LAX terminals every 30–60 minutes and is widely used. Public transit is possible via Metro Rail and bus connections, but it requires a transfer to a free airport shuttle and takes significantly longer. Driving yourself is an option with several on‑airport parking garages and economy lots, though traffic can be heavy and parking fees add up.",

The onward short leg to Phnom Penh is typically operated by an Airbus A330-300, A320-family jet, or Boeing 737 MAX 8, depending on the connecting hub. The exact aircraft varies by day and airline, but widebody Boeings and Airbuses dominate the long segment.",
