        "question": "Are there visa requirements to travel from Atlanta to San Juan?",

        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in San Juan?",
        "answer": "Luis Munoz Marin International Airport sits about eight miles east of downtown San Juan. Taxis are widely available outside the terminal and charge fixed zone-based fares to major destinations, making them reliable and straightforward for first-time visitors. Ride-share services like Uber operate in San Juan and are generally less expensive than taxis. The Tren Urbano metro system does not directly serve the airport, limiting mass transit options. Public buses run from the airport but are slow and infrequent, making them less practical for most travelers. Car rentals are plentiful at the airport and are popular given Puerto Rico's limited public transit network beyond the city. Most visitors use taxis or ride-share services for the airport-to-city journey, while car rentals are favored by those planning to explore the island more broadly."
