        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in San Pedro Sula?",
        "answer": "From Ramón Villeda Morales International Airport (SAP), the most practical and widely used option is a taxi, which takes about 15–20 minutes to reach central San Pedro Sula. Authorized airport taxis are available outside the terminal and offer a fixed rate; negotiating the fare beforehand is recommended. Ride‑sharing services like Uber operate in the city but their presence at the airport is inconsistent, so a taxi is the more reliable choice. No mass‑transit rail or dedicated bus service connects the airport to the city center, though limited public buses run from the main road outside the airport grounds—these are less comfortable and rarely used by visitors. Several international car‑rental agencies have counters at the airport, but driving yourself is uncommon for short stays due to traffic and parking challenges.",
