        "answer": "From downtown Oita, the most popular and fastest option to reach Oita Airport is the hovercraft, which takes about 35 minutes and departs daily. Buses also connect the airport to various cities in the prefecture, with the road journey taking roughly an hour. The airport is not accessible by train. Taxis and driving with parking are available but are slower and more expensive than the hovercraft.",
