        "question": "What are the most popular areas to visit in Baja California Sur and how does that affect where I should fly?",

La Paz offers a quieter, more authentic experience and Todos Santos attracts surfers and artists. Most visitors fly into Los Cabos International Airport, which serves both Cabo cities. If you are heading to La Paz or Todos Santos, you can fly into La Paz International Airport, but flights from New York typically connect through Mexico City or other hubs, while Los Cabos has more direct options."

        "answer": "From New York City, Los Cabos International Airport is the main gateway to Baja California Sur, with the most flights and best access to Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo resorts.

Loreto is an option for a relaxed coastal escape but has limited service, often connecting through other Mexican hubs."
